Application Name Paranoia

Situation

Mozilla builds have 2 values to set application name, MOZ_APP_NAME and MOZ_APP_DISPLAYNAME.

  • MOZ_APP_NAME is a internal name. typically lower-cased string e.g. "firefox".
  • MOZ_APP_DISPLAYNAME is a user-visible name. tipically title-cased string e.g. "Firefox".
Use Cases
Firefox 2.0 Firefox 3.0 Nightly (1.9) Debian Iceweasel 2.0
MOZ_APP_NAME firefox firefox firefox firefox
MOZ_APP_DISPLAYNAME Firefox Firefox Minefield Iceweasel

Proposal

Actually, the browser needs 3 names, that is, "firefox", "Minefield" and "Firefox" (See "Nightly" in the above table), respecitively MOZ_APP_NAME, MOZ_APP_DISPLAYNAME and nsXREAppData::name. So I'd like to suggest to add a new flag MOZ_APP_BRANDNAME as below.
