As a workaround, we use specific naming of our drawing models, ie. "MC10 - STN 999" to accomplish this (for at least the start station of the sheet).

This can be put in the title block by inserting a text field using the drawing boundary in the sheet (by selecting the section marker). There is a property for drawing link name

Not exactly what you are after, but something that can help.

Thank you Paul. This will be a big help. Currently I have to label them manually and I can have 500 cross section sheets on a highway project.

It's not currently supported but will become available in an upcoming release later in the year via the addition of some new text favorites.
