Description

As discussed. For instance in a ExecutionListener for a ServiceTask this is now required:

public void notify(final DelegateExecution execution) throws Exception {
String activityName = "Unknown";
if (execution instanceof ExecutionEntity)

{ final ExecutionEntity executionEntity = (ExecutionEntity) execution; activityName = (String) executionEntity.getActivity().getProperty("name"); }

}

It would be useful to be able to get the Activity's name directly from the DelegateExecution or Activity and get an empty String if there is none (null-safe).
