On closer inspection of a couple of other modules (Clustalw.pm and TCoffee.pm), they seem to hardcode the exe name in $PROGRAM_NAME and have a sub
(program_name) that simply returns this value. I'd like to see the program_name become a getter/setter so users can change the default and have the
string stored in the factory object.

Does it matter that Bio::Tools::Run::WrapperBase is in bioperl-core not bioperl-run? I suppose not since bioperl-core is a prerep for bioperl-run but
wouldn't it make sence to go in bioperl-run?
