Updated the description to make clarify we are talking about the
app_pkgname (ie, the "name" field in the click manifest), not the APP_ID
that is used by apparmor, application lifecycle, etc.

** Description changed:

  Currently the SDK installs applications in /usr. This is fine for
  traditional Ubuntu packaging for now, but with the move to Click
  packages, these paths will be:
  
- /opt/click.ubuntu.com/<app-id>/<version>/
+ /opt/click.ubuntu.com/<app_pkname>/<app_version>/
  
- where <app id> is the reverse domain name. Eg:
+ where <app_pkgname> is the reverse domain name. Eg:
  com.ubuntu.developer.appdev_username.appname
  
- The above path and the format of the <app id> is finalized and used by
- apparmor, click, the click server, and application lifecycle (ie,
- desktop files). All that's left is for the SDK apps to incorporate these
- changes as needed (eg, for their readable and writable directories).
+ The above path and the format of the <app_pkgname> is finalized and used
+ by apparmor, click, the click server, and application lifecycle (ie,
+ desktop files) in various ways. All that's left is for the SDK apps to
+ incorporate these changes as needed (eg, for their readable and writable
+ directories).
  
- Note: /opt/click.ubuntu.com is the default and could change. This should
- be totally transparent for the SDK though.
+ Note: /opt/click.ubuntu.com should not be harcoded anywhere. While it is
+ the current location, it is configurable and one of several locations
+ for click packages on the system.
