gRPC url for service includes protobuf package name - how to change that?

[david...@xnor.ai]

[Using C++ bindings.]

I was surprised to learn the hard way today that the gRPC URL includes the "full service name" which is the protobuf package + the service name.  I was expecting it only to be the service name. 

This bit me when I changed the package name in the proto file the server consumed but didn't change it in the client and now the client couldn't talk to it.

I was under the wrong impression that proto package names were only for the language bindings and didn't go over the wire.

So two important questions:

1) How can I change this?  Is there something I can tell ServerBuilder, for example that will fix the URL and sever it from the tie to the proto package name?

2) Where is this documented?

This is documented in https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/doc/PROTOCOL-HTTP2.md 

I do not think there is an API to change it.
