babbled:

1. use BOTH window name AND class together - not only class or name. this is
more "specific".
2. did you know you can use globs in name/class/title/role matches? eg "blah*"
or "* - Firefox" for example.
3. title, name, class, role etc. matches match on map/show of the window. if
the title is set or changed after showing the window - then a title match won't
help at all as the title is a moving target (and you don't want to be changing
the icon all the time as the title changes and may have something new - but i
might change this later and add psuedo-hacks in to work with this kind of
behavior).
4. if the programmers are lazy (or use a toolkit that doesn't give them access
to change this and a toolkit sets all the name/class to be identical fo all
windows... eg SDL) you are out of luck.
5. e does have other ways to pick an eap icon - if e laucnhes the app then e
also tries startup id id and pid properties.
