Looks fine for me so far. However, to retain or increase consistent terminology with the underlying technology, I would kindly ask to update symbol names to refer to "display names" instead of "folder names".

For reference, see this property on file provider domains:
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/fileprovider/nsfileproviderdomain/displayname

I won't approve on my own because I cannot comment on the Qt part. I need feedback from the others in that regard.

On this occasion, I understand the reason why the user defaults access is implemented redundantly in fileprovidersettingscontroller_mac.mm and fileproviderdomainmanager_mac.mm. I guess it is a matter of time that this comes back like a boomerang. 馃榿 Maybe outsource this into a dedicated facility to have a consolidated, single implementation? I started moving things for the mapping between account and file provider domain identifiers recently, too.
