Bug Description
Currently in the HUD items from application indicators are a bit ugly. This is because it uses the a11y string which is missing in some of them, and in others it simply is too much information. We need to get a user visible string that is appropriate for showing in the HUD.
To do this I'm recommending we use the KSNI "Title" field and provide a function in libappindicator for setting it. Plus passing throughout the stack.
