Description

Galaxia supports assigning a name to a process instance, and stores this value in the galaxia_instances table in the name field. This can be assigned through the API using the setName() method of the Instance class. (It is also assigned from the Javascript popup window which opens when you select a Start activity from the User Activities page)

However, there are many places (for example, User Instances, and Monitor Workitems) where this value is not displayed, only a bare (and meaningless, from a user's perspective) process ID number.

This is a clear usability obstacle.

Solution
All places where a instance's ID number is displayed, should use the instance's name if it exists.
