Bug Description
When the name of an application is too long it is ellipsised and in several cases there is no way to know which application is which from the shorten name and the icons are not always obvious.
For example in French there are several viewer applications like:
- Visionneuse de documents (pdf viewer)
- Visionneuse de polices de caractères (character map viewer)
- Visionneuse d'images (image viewer)
- ...
There are all ellipsised to 'Visionne..."
