[Sugar-devel] service_name and bundle_id... again

[James Cameron]

Yes, it could, but tracking down every copy of every activity is
impractical for some deployments.  Activities are shared around, on
school servers, by e-mail, by USB drive.  Adding a needless
incompatibility breaks all this.  May as well not have chosen .xo
format in the first place if we're going to break it so badly.

And all for what?  What possible justification have we to insist on
this breakage?  (A rhetorical question.)
