Created attachment 175446 [details] Mockup of the page including this information underneath the 'pretty' title FEATURE REQUEST It would be beneficial to have the true flatpak name available underneath the title of an app in its Discover page. The information could be shown as (for example): APP com.aa.bb.app Author Please see the attached for a mockup
What would be the user-facing advantage of showing this information? Who benefits, and how? We need a plausible and reasonable use case to be articulated before we could consider doing it.

One might have to open the desktop file to find the name to put in the “flatpak run” command. I can never remember what these apps are called, and I doubt I’m the only person who has that issue (minor as it is)
Thanks. But in that, case wouldn't it make more sense to look up the ID using `flatpak list`? Typically at the moment you want to do `flatpak run [something]` you've already in a terminal window anyway, but you don't have Discover open.

Seems I forgot about that command lol
