--- Comment #7 from Jani-Matti Hätinen <jani-matti.hatinen at iki.fi> ---
It is a horrible, horrible 'design decision' though. It elevates the
application name as the main information above the content displayed, which is
always wrong. No user cares one bit that Dragon player happens to be the piece
of software that is playing their video file (unless of course they discover a
bug in the application), they only care about the content being displayed.

This problem is especially egrecious if one tries to use Dragon Player to play
different video clips as part of video editing workflow. Because there's no way
to see which file is playing in which window when the files are paused, Dragon
Player is utterly useless in this use case simply due to this bug.

Status bar does nothing in this case, because it won't show up in the task
manager.
