Confession: haven't done this in decades.
Isn't the usual way to use 'xwininfo' to figure out the information
about any X window and set a specific resource in the .X11defaults or
equivalent? Also doing the same with windows that aggregate could yield
a common resource, perhaps?

Running the default window manager in the Linux distribution I am running,
multiple 'windows' of the same program are usually aggregated under one icon.
I typically have numerous (gnome) terminals, several top-level emacs windows,
likely more than brower window (even with tabs) and so on. They all aggregate
under the top-level icon
R plots however all have one each. Needless to say I may also have more than
one plot device open... Would anyone know how we can force these to
aggregate under just one? I had some digital fingerprints on the .desktop
file that ships with simply because someone first sent it to me as a patch
for the Debian package. But I know nuttin' about the XDG desktop
specification and all that. I had one idea regarding window titles, but those
are different for the terminals and emacs windows too. Anybody have an idea?
