--------------------------------------
Hi Andre,
I think its the Properties.java class that supports Name and DisplayName, but
Relationship only supports Name. This isnt really an issue more of just like
for like so NIFI-1131 can be done without breaking changes in a minor release.
But its possible I misunderstood Joe's commits in 1131. I'll look back over and
follow up.

> Relationship should support a DisplayName and Name like PropertyDescriptor

> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Joseph Niemiec
> Assignee: Joseph Niemiec
> Priority: Minor
>
> Today the PropertyDescriptor supports a display name which allows UI updates
> without breaking of the flow.xml.gz file in terms of downstream relationship
> binding. If we attempted to just update the NAME processors my break, but by
> enabling a decoupled displayname this can get updated at will.
