Public bug reported:

When I install a Progressive Web App (PWA) using the Chromium Browser (Snap 
118.0.5993.88) the app gets added correctly to the application list (the one 
that appears when you press the Windows key twice) from which it can be opened.
However, when you open the application it is not shown as a separate 
application in the Ubuntu Dock (on the left) but seems like a regular second 
window of Chromium.
Additionally, the icon of the PWA is not shown. 
I added a screenshot to visualize my problem exemplarily using Spotify.

This makes switching between multiple PWAs a lot more complicated, since
you have to iterate through all open PWAs and other Chromium windows.

I guess this is a bug, because on my Manjaro-Gnome system Chromium PWAs
appear as separate applications with the correct icon in the dock (Dash-
To-Dock extension).

I'm using Ubuntu 23.04
