Oh: Just FYI at least in the past (that might be the long gone past
though), not every game domain had an gameid included. In such a case
the target name was considered to be the gameid (there is still code
which supports this, in the launcher for example). I am not sure whether
that still applies with our current code base (it definitly wouldn't
work with your new code ;-). Guess one should take a look into that.
