What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download OpenVPN for Android from Google Play.
2. Open up your app launcher or move the button to main screen
3. Overlong name "OpenVPN for Android" is cut to "OpenVPN for ..."

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Just name it "OpenVPN" (without Android). Or "OpenVPN ICS" if you want. But 
"OpenVPN for Android" is too long. Its cut after the "for"...

What mobile phone are you using?
Archos G9 101 Tablet (Android 4.0.3)
Google Nexus S (Android 4.1.1)

Which Android Version and stock ROM or aftermarket like cyanogenmod?
Stock 4.0 and 4.1, respectively. No root, oder other hacks.

THX for this amazin peace of software!

Yes. I know that the name is too long on some launchers and under some 
circumstances. 

Renaming it to OpenVPN is probably not a good idea since it  gives the 
impression that this is a nofficial product from OpenVPN Inc (which it is not.) 
Even the current name "OpenVPN for Android" might that impression.

OpenVPN ICS is the internal project name and quite nonsense from a user 
perspective as it happily will run on JB.

I don't think there an option to have different (shorter) name for a home 
screen shortcut. (At least not with the default launcher)
