There are times when it would be useful to have the application_name

Would there be any downside to this?

In a lot of situations ("top" for instance) only a limited number of
characters can be displayed from a process title.  I'm hesitant to add
fields to that string that we don't really need.

Could we make this configurable, similar to log_line_prefix?
