Feature #3720
Operating system name should be different to Facter operating system string
Description
The OS names reported by Facter aren't the actual operating system names, so we should have a separate label/description to the ID that Facter uses.
e.g. "RedHat" should be "Red Hat Enterprise Linux", "Scientific" should be "Scientific Linux" etc.

Yeah, it'd certainly fit on the screen better. I was wondering if the LSB descriptions could be used by default, though that's the "long form", but at least let users edit the label/description.
