Adding the new metadata field for sensu seems to make the name of the alert revert to task.

Research direction

Reproduce the behavior using Kapacitor OSS 1.5.2 and Chronograf 1.7.4 with a Sensu alert, first recording the configured alert name without metadata. Add the metadata field and compare the resulting name. Done means adding Sensu metadata no longer changes the alert name to "Task" instead of the name variable.
