For one thing, in a professional application you'd probably want to be able
to display the node names in languages other than English, so
node.namewon't be very useful to real applications.

In lieu of that, can do something hacky like node.toString() and use a
regexp to extract the name from the returned string (which will be
something like "[object AudioGainNode]").
