Ah sneaky! :) Using JNI to by-pass access control so we can set up a 
private method to do the name setting, yet avoid any API change that 
would require a CCC request. I think I like it. :)

Need to hear from core-libs and/or launcher folk as this touches a 
number of pieces of code.

Thanks,
David
