What's the right XID ???

The returned ID depends on how each application is implemented.
Probably each one is traversing the windows tree different.

You can call:

#: xwininfo -root -tree | less

and search for each id that you listed in the output. This probably
will give you some light.

Best regards,
Carlos.
