--- Comment #36 from Nate Graham <pointedst...@zoho.com> ---
It sounds like this will be essentially fixed in Wayland, since the icons in
desktop files are wrong or bad much less often than the icons specified by the
windows themselves (in my experience). Also that will eliminate discrepancies
between the icon in the Task Manager--which is usually themed--and the icon
shown in the Task Switcher--which is specified directly by the app and usually
bypasses theming.
There is one scenario today, pre-Wayland, where I can see the logic of
overriding the window-specified icon with the one in the .desktop file: when
using a Task Switcher with "Only one window per application" checked. With
this, you're basically signifying that you want the Task switcher to show
applications rather than windows, so I think it makes sense to show application
icons as specified in the application's desktop file.
But I'll wait patiently for the Wayland version to exclusively use icons from
the desktop file. :)
