System Information
Operating system: Linux-5.4.0-80-generic-x86_64-with-glibc2.31 64 Bits
Graphics card: GeForce 9800 GT/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 3.3.0 NVIDIA 340.108

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.0.0 Alpha, branch: master, commit date: 2021-08-09 23:26, hash: cb7b4064d6
Worked: Unsure

Short description of error
The following animated strip properties do not show the name of the strip alongside the property names in the graph editor (making it quite confusing when viewing keyframes for multiple strips):

Translate X / Y
Scale X / Y
Rotation
Crop left/right/bottom/top

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
strip-names-not-showing-for-certain-animated-properties-in-graph-editor.blend

Open any visual strip, Color strip for example
Rename strip to something that stands out a bit more, like "!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Animate every single animatable property in the "Strip" sidebar using "i" hotkey
Go to graph editor and note missing strip names for a number of properties in the outliner on left

Can confirm the situation.

Crop and Transform are nested structs though (nested under Sequence), so this is (kind of) expected.
Will quickly check if this can be tweaked easily, otherwise would not consider this as a bug.

Thanks Philipp, appreciate the effort! Hopefully there's not a big technical bottleneck...
Though I didn't show it in the attached example (I should have), when you have more than one showing in the graph editor it does get very confusing (and there are situations where you want multiple selections). Those particular keyframes become very difficult to work with in that case.
