Question: don't process names usually change between versions of individual apps? Seems a large task to keep all that updated.

Not that I've noticed. There is a character limit on the process names, so sometimes the names get truncated, though.

This can all be done server side as well if you're just sending up a raw list every time. No need for an app update.
