uApprove -- Change Attribute Name Listed

[Joshua Brodie]

Thank you.....very good to have this.

Is there a trigger in idp.properties -- or elsewhere -- to enable the human
readable names to appear?

We are using 3.3.1 and added the DisplayName & DisplayDescription (english
only) -- after doing so the attribute itself also does not show up on the
attribute consent page.
