You need to have a .desktop file installed which specifies the WM_CLASS
X property of that window (and preferably also an icon to use for it).
You can see the properties Emacs uses with the "xprop" utility from
the maemo x-debug-tools package:

Thanks for the tip. Can I ask for a little more help?
I created /usr/share/applications/hildon-navigator/emacs.desktop:
/usr/share/applications/hildon-navigator $ ls -l emacs.desktop
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 55 Feb 5 21:32 emacs.desktop
/usr/share/applications/hildon-navigator $ cat emacs.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Emacs
WM_CLASS=Emacs
Type=default
Then I did:
$ rm -rf /home/user/.osso
Then I rebooted. Then I ran emacs over ssh -X but was not able to select the
Emacs window.
~/.osso/hildon-desktop $ cat tasknavigator.conf
[/usr/share/applications/hildon-navigator/hildon-task-navigator-bookmarks.desktop]
[/usr/share/applications/hildon-navigator/osso-contact-plugin.desktop]
[/usr/share/applications/hildon-navigator/applications-menu.desktop]
[/usr/share/applications/hildon-navigator/app-switcher.desktop]
[/usr/share/applications/hildon-navigator/switcher-menu.desktop]
What did I do wrong?
