Naming of devices under X.

With X, input devices in GIMP have a quite human-understandable name.
Like "Wacom MobileStudio Pro 13 Pen stylus".

With Wayland, in GIMP, this becomes "xwayland-stylus:13".
The name became generic, and not really made for human.

Do we have some code to change in GIMP to get a human-targetted name for devices when it runs under Wayland?
