Patch already provided here awaiting review:
http://tickets.opscode.com/browse/CHEF-3562

There's an issue open that asks if name should be a required
attribute: http://tickets.opscode.com/browse/CHEF-3490

And yet another ticket to make name be the name of the cookbook rather
than the directory: http://tickets.opscode.com/browse/CHEF-3307
