> When the SiteToSiteProvenanceReportingTask emits flow files, some of them include a "componentName" field and some do not. Investigation shows that only the components (except connections) in the root process group have that field populated. Having this information can be very helpful to the user, even though the names might be duplicated, there would be a mapping between a component's ID and its name. At the very least the behavior (i.e. component name being available) should be consistent.
