1) if a track is record-arm'ed it cannot be renamed
2) actually change the name in the entry filed to a new unique new name. Then the "Rename" button will become sensitive.

Does this help?

Is it intended behavior? I came to report it as a bug, because it looks like one

It is entirely intentional that record arm'ed tracks cannot be renamed.

This is for various reasons, but mostly because the filename that is recorded to is set when arming a track.
