Good Evening Everyone, 

I am trying to make the switch from rdesktop to freerdp. I use a tiling window 
manager, and with rdesktop I can use the WM_CLASS property to tie rdesktop to 
open only on a certain tag. freerdp seems to be missing this property set, and 
I was wondering if there was any plans to add it back? 

It's really helpful since most window manager that are tiling make use of 
programs WM_CLASS property to accomplish cetain task. I have included the xprop 
of both rdesktop and freerdp for comparison.


rdesktop - output. 

$ xprop
WM_PROTOCOLS(ATOM): protocols  WM_DELETE_WINDOW
WM_STATE(WM_STATE):
                window state: Normal
                icon window: 0x0
WM_NORMAL_HINTS(WM_SIZE_HINTS):
                program specified minimum size: 1024 by 768
                program specified maximum size: 1024 by 768
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "rdesktop", "rdesktop"
_NET_WM_NAME(UTF8_STRING) = 0x72, 0x64, 0x65, 0x73, 0x6b, 0x74, 0x6f, 0x70, 
0x20, 0x2d, 0x20, 0x36, 0x37, 0x2e, 0x31, 0x39, 0x32, 0x2e, 0x32, 0x32, 0x38, 
0x2e, 0x31, 0x38, 0x36
WM_NAME(STRING) = "rdesktop"

freerdp - output

$ xprop
WM_PROTOCOLS(ATOM): protocols  WM_DELETE_WINDOW
_NET_WM_DESKTOP(CARDINAL) = 8
WM_STATE(WM_STATE):
                window state: Normal
                icon window: 0x0
WM_NAME(STRING) = "freerdp"
WM_NORMAL_HINTS(WM_SIZE_HINTS):
                program specified minimum size: 1024 by 768
                program specified maximum size: 1024 by 768


Please keep up the good work guys!
