Using the pick activity will display the app as "Communications", even though that's not the entry point we are delegating to

Build: B2G 18 4/5/2013
Device: Unagi

STR

1. Select browse on http://www.developphp.com/view_lesson.php?v=578 through input=file to pull up the activity picker for the pick activity

Expected

I'd expect Contacts to be listed, not Communications, given that's where the pick activity goes to.

Actual

We end up listing communications as an app choice in the activity picker instead of Contacts. From a user's perspective, this is very confusing - we're indicating an app that the user doesn't even know about on the device. If they select Communications, they'll be redirected to the Contacts app, even though they didn't know initially that's where they were going to go.
Not going to block since we aren't blocking on input file support, but this does impact a basic flow of the 1.1 input file support being technically incorrect. Let's go with tracking here.

Probably easiest way to fix this is to have activities for the communications app specified on a per entry point basis, rather than globally.
