Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor

The Kill or End process dialog does not display the name of the process to be stopped.

It is easy to click on the wrong app. If the name of the process to be stopped is displayed in the dialog it would give the user an indication that they had made a mistake, so I guess it's not really a bug, but a UI issue.
