System Information
Operating system: OSX 13.5, 13.4
Graphics card: Apple M1 Pro
(Problem reproducible on independent Windows machine)

Blender Version
Broken: 3.6.1, 3.5

Short description of error

Gaps can be created in the custom orientation menu in the 3D viewer, and cannot be deleted. Persists in saved .blend

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

In the "Transform Orientation" menu in the 3D viewport, add 3 new custom orientations by clicking the plus symbol 3 times.
Then select the middle one, and in the bottom window, delete it's name and hit enter.
A gap will be created that cannot be deleted or moved as far as I'm aware

This bug is one I have using to organize my projects until it was pointed out to me that it likely is a bug. I ask that it be improved upon, as weird as that sounds, by adding the ability to delete said gap, but I understand if it gets removed entirely from future versions

Can confirm. It's indeed a very weird bug.

Looks like the UI will simply not show the button if the name is null, it's probably not the intended logic here, but we could technically have a set() function for TransformOrientation::name property and have it change the name into spaces so the button will be visible?
