patch to do this
LibreOffice recycles toplevel windows, e.g. writer to start center to calc.
Under X we can use XSetClassHint to keep the WM_CLASS in sync so we get the
right icons in the task switcher. I don't see a way to hack around this under
wayland, hence the attached suggested patch for gtk itself to gain access to
setting the wayland app_id equivalent</pre>
