What
In the Matomo settings section we are able to configure IP addresses to be excluded in the tracking. It would be helpful if we could set up a description of a particular IP address to clarify which IP it is.

Why
Because when you have a full list of IP addresses stated in this section after a period of time you do not remember every single one of them anymore. It helps to have a better overview of what data is excluded in the tracking.

Suggestion
I.e. now it is:
123.456.789.12
123.456.123.18
123.456.444.13

And then, it would be:
123.456.789.12 //Innocraft Office
123.456.123.18 //Internal
123.456.444.13 //Web developer

At the moment this data is stored as a comma-seperated list in the SitesManager_ExcludedIpsGlobal option (see here), so any place that uses this list would need to be updated to ignore everything after // and the help text would need to be updated.
