I'm a little concerned about this talk about deprecation here -- the
app_name exists for a reason, and at time the app_name feature was added,
it worked (to the best of my knowledge, anyway).

Erm… or we can fix it. Like I said, it worked when I put it in. If it's
been broken subsequently, that strikes me as a bug in the fix, not in the
original idea.

I'm -1 on deprecating this unless someone can make a good argument for why
the underlying concept is somehow flawed, and I'm not convinced it is
(since it was working before).
