It seems that we added PersistenceUnitName to the PersistenceManagerFactory before completely understanding the usage, which primarily is to assign a name when configuring the PMF via jdoconfig.

I now believe that the "PersistenceUnit" part of the property name is distracting, and the real property name should be simply "Name". That is, PersistenceManagerFactories can have a Name property. The javadoc and other documentation can call out that this name is the same as the PersistenceUnit name in JPA, but I don't think that there is value in calling it PersistenceUnitName.

The implication is a change in the PersistenceManagerFactory API and the jdoconfig xsd.

Any comments?
