Title field in .flatpakref files uses ID instead of friendly name #22

As far as I can tell from the code, the .flatpakref files generated by the backend should have something like:

Title=Geary from flathub where the "Geary" part of the string is pulled from the <name> tag of the AppData file.

What actually seems to be happening is that we end up with the ID of the application there, so we end up with things like: Title=org.gnome.Geary from flathub

I've tried with a selection of different .flatpakref files downloaded from flathub and this seems to be consistent across all of the ones I've downloaded. But as far as I can tell, the code makes sense and should be working, so I'm not sure where it's going wrong.

After a bit more digging, I've found that these flatpakref files are generated by flat-manager and have nothing to do with this repo. However, I'll leave this issue open for now in case there's anything that can be done here.

I don't think so. As you said, it's handled by flat-manager.
