Thank you Kyle & Quincey for your additional comments. I agree, it does not seem to be a good idea to give an application a different identifier based on the version changing.

p.s. Anyone know how exactly Spaces builds the string that it uses?

In my actual case, the name of the application showing up in Spaces was 'myapp 2008' if that was the application found first in the Launch Services Database, but if 'myapp 2009' was launched first, Spaces was showing only 'myapp'.

If I look at the Launch Services database, I see:

bundle  id:            #####
        name:          myapp

in both cases. I'm just not sure where Spaces is getting the 'myapp 2008' string. The info.plist for myapp 2008 does not contain the string 'myapp 2008' either.
