I know, but I would argue that the distinction between those two is pretty much 
irrelevant. That said, I do understand the need to pass this information, 
especially as more things become more scriptable (process, platform, etc). 
That's why I suggested using the `ScriptedMetadata` here because it's more 
generic.

Concretely my suggestion would be to have `{Set,Get}ScriptedMetadata` and if 
you think you really need it, maybe an `IsScripted` method that checks if the 
metadata is set (either by storing an optional ScriptedMetadata in the 
`ProcessInfo` or maybe through calling an `operator bool` on the 
`ScriptedMetadata` (which would check the name being empty like you do here).

I totally agree, as of now `ScriptedMetadata` contains the exact two fields 
that you have here. If other patches are extending that for the scripted 
processes or platforms, we could keep the common stuff in a base class and have 
a ScriptedProcessMetadata and ScriptedPlatformMetadata respectively. WDYT?
