Each UNO service implementation has to include individual code to implement 
getSupportedServiceNames (there are helpers for the various language bindings, 
but those need not be used); that should explains the inconsistencies.  If you 
feel like it, you can file an issue for the UnoControlDialog implementation.  
(Then again, the information obtained from getSupportedServiceNames is often 
not considered /that/ useful, so most of the time people do not seem to bother 
about those inconsistencies.)
