Project Name Exposed to Zapier

Hive currently does not expose the Project Name of a task to Zapier - only the Project ID. This is very problematic because for many apps that you may be connecting to Hive (where the action is originating first in Hive) you then have no way to tell what Project the task is related to since the Project ID is just a code.
I understand that the original reason this was done is because the Project Name is not a unique identifier - but it should be up to the individual that is setting up Zapier to know that they can't use the Project Name as a unique identifier. Not exposing the field at all prevents the user from being able to simply insert the Project Name into description fields (or other fields) in applications that would be extremely informative and useful. And in fact not having this ability can largely break any usefulness of a Hive/Zapier link in many use cases.
Please open up the Project Name field to Zapier so that we can use our data as intended with Zapier and other applications. Thanks!
