Binary and Service Names with Underscores

Continuing my desire to package Postgres in a snap, I came across another 
issue. Postgres has several binaries that contain underscores that I need 
to use in my snap. Presently, underscores are not allowed in binary or 
service names. Sergio mentioned on GitHub that this is due to how the 
APP_ID is generated.

Are there any plans to remove this restriction? I can work around this, 
but it's an unfortunate limitation.
