New issue 20587 by beg1689: Window class for web apps should be different  
from browser window
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=20587

Chrome Version       : Any
OS + version : Linux
CPU architecture (32-bit / 64-bit): Any
window manager : Any

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Launch a web site in app mode (such as "chromium-browser --
app=http://www.gmail.com";)

What is the expected result?
Each web app should be distinguishable by the Window Manager, probably by by
having their own window class.
These classes would be used in .desktop files as the value for
StartupWMClass

What happens instead?
Web apps look like just additional browser windows by most window managers,
for example they will be grouped together with the browser on any type of
panel/dock which groups application windows.


The window class could be based on the domain of the web app or something
(like chromium-app-gmail).

Or, a simple command line option could be used in shortcuts such as
"chromium-browser --app=http://gmail.com --windowclass=Gmail"
