To the basename of the .desktop file? No, we don't know that. GtkApplication
does set a default prgname if the app didn't set it itself[0] (which happens to
match the pre-dbus-activation convention for .desktop file names), and apps
with a different naming scheme (hopefully) call it themselves to hint at the
right name. So using g_get_prgname() for set_app_id() should be a good pick if
the goal is to associate the app with its .desktop file, or just go back to the
previously used gdk_get_program_class() - that's what's used on X, and some
fringe app might call gdk_set_program_class() directly instead of
g_set_prgname()
