@alopresto I looked up the inheritance chain and there aren't any other
processors that follow the `name`/`displayName` convention. They all set `name`
only. Is this convention documented somewhere? I couldn't find it in the
developer guide, contributor guide, or mailing list...
Also, doesn't changing the name attribute break backwards compatibility for
existing attributes? The name field is used in `flow.xml.gz`, so changing it
would cause a processor to "forget" the setting, unless I'm mistaken...
I pushed another commit with integration tests for the server side
encryption attribute.
