[Bug 1167332] [NEW] No way to see package name from software updater

[Tpugliese]

Public bug reported:

There is no way to see package name from the new software updater.  I
get that the new API is simpler and easier to use but at least show the
package name in the "details" section along with the package description
and changelog.  Displaying the package  name when hovering over the item
is another option that might work.
