Where/When Can End-User View Android Application package name?

Question: Where/When would the end-user see the package name for my application? I've found these places thus far, thanks!

  1. On the Android OS > Settings > App Manager > Running > Click mine
  2. play.google.com URL get parameter (example)

Details: I'm prepared to publish an app using com.mydomain.myapp where myapp is currently a word in English but the user bases, phone carriers pre-installing the app, etc. will be in asia, latin america, africa, etc.

caveat1: Please take the details of this ex with a grain of salt as I've simplified it so you don't have to read a novel.

caveat2: I read Androids docs and the many stackoverflow posts re how to name your package w/out seeing reference to user exposure.

caveat3: My question would be "Does it matter what I name my package yadda yadda..." but I figure that would be subjective.

I would not worry about the package name, just look Facebook app, which package's name is "com.facebook.katana" (may be mistaken, but the fact is that finishes on "katana".
