[Qbs] Could we make a version 1.24.2?

Hi there!
   I have a handful of projects using the freedesktop qbs module, with a 
line like this:

     freedesktop.name: product.name

This does not work in QBS 2.x, because the "name" property was renamed 
to "appName". Now that I'm moving over to QBS 2.x, I've still the issue 
that in some cases I still need to compile my projects with QBS 1.x 
(updating these setups to a 1.24.2 would be simpler than updating to 
2.x, since in 2.x the build system has changed and qmake is no longer 
supported), so I need a solution that works in both systems.

Hence my question: can we backport the appName change to QBS 1.x and 
make a release?

Ciao,
   Alberto
