I learnt now about commit e1ff3c67e8544f41f1bea76ba76385faee0d2bb7 and I
find it a mistake.  The "id" is available through
object_get_canonical_path_component.  Can you change the "id" assignment
to use object_get_canonical_path_component instead?

Who defines a name property?

Why not print the path for the !dev case?  I think we can just have

    mon_prinf(f, " %s:{%s", label, dev ? "dev" : "obj");
    if (dev ? dev->id : id) {
        mon_printf(f, " id=%s", dev ? dev->id : id);
    } else {
        canonical_path = object_get_canonical_path(...)
        mon_printf(f, " path=%s", canonical_path);
        g_free(canonical_path);
    }

Thanks,
