So for my Insteon devices, I can look at the address and then find that device in my control panel.  Z-Wave devices have no address on them.  When I'm looking at a Z-wave outlet I'm not currently using, how do I know which one it is in my control panel?

I name my devices what they are in addition to putting a label on the back of the product

I will be doing that from now on. 

Also consider putting your devices in folders. Etc. I have "Motion Sensors" -> "Indoor" -> "Brand" -> "Room"

Motion Sensors -> Indoor -> ZSE18 + Hallway or whatever works best for you. That should help you short out your devices and what rooms, model etc....

The problem with doing this in my case is that it makes is a bit of guesswork when adding a node to a program. Unfortunately trial and error is the only way to find the right node in long folder paths. It would be nice if UD either make the input a text box rather than a text field OR have a pop-up balloon on hover that displays the full path of the line you are on.
