Yep, you can choose a better name like just `follow-symlink`. The idea is:
for new properties we're added to existing/new processors we want to use both
`.name()` and `.displayName()`. The latter is what is actually displayed in the
UI and can be changed without breaking backward compatibility while the name is
what is used to uniquely reference the property and we cannot change the name
without breaking existing flows.
