At admin/config/development/configuration/single/import, when you want to perform a single import and you select Simple configuration in the Configuration type dropdown, you're thus offered to fill in the Configuration name text field with the name of the configuration file you wish to import your configuration for.
It's not obvious if you should type the name of the file with the YAML extension, just the name of the file, or something else. I think we should better indicate what should be entered in this text field and prevent any type of confusion. I suggest a simple description to go along with the textfield.
Please see attached screenshots. Patch attached.

swentel commentedLooks sensible to me, been bitten by this at some time, also because for simple config imports, there's a tiny bug in the confirm form, see #2150171: Confirm form of a simple setting always says it's creating a new configuration.

webchickNice one! This was definitely tripping me up today after not having looked at this form in a couple of months.
Committed and pushed to 8.x. Thanks!
