May Jeff,

I have not tested this but it looks like you can find the src/com/esri/viewer/components/GeocoderComponent.mxml and find the configureMapServices function and change this line:

mapService.name = mapServiceXML.name.toString();

mapService.name = "";

Let me know if this works.

I don't think so that is possible right now unless you create a custom renderer (custom skin) for the Geocoder component. The behavior comes in from the API component.

The results are shown as : {value} - {layerName} - {mapServiceName} where layername is the layer which contains the result

If you look at: http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/flex-api/apiref/com/esri/ags/components/supportClasses/GeocoderMapService.html#name, the name property is a utility property to show a different label other than the map service layer name, it does not affect the layerName.
