Review request for KDEPIM and Laurent Montel.


Repository: kdepim


Description
-------

Currently broken because WM_CLASS is set to 'kmail2' which does not correspond with desktop file.

some IRC log:

Sho_: let me give you some context
Sho_: Plasma's Task Manager contains a complicated heuristic that tries to find out what app a window belongs to, working off of window and process metadata
Sho_: it's necessary to e.g. pin an app as a launcher based on a window, or to group windows belonging to the same app, or fetch jump list actions from the .desktop file
Sho_: because kmail sets bad metadata, the heuristic works only as far as being able to find the executable - that's enough to store a launcher, which then points at the executable and uses a base64 serialization of the window icon as icon for it
Sho_: but since it can't find the .desktop file, it can't e.g. show jump lists (or grab the right icon from the icon theme based on icon name)

Testing
-------

builds and runs, now also has jump lists (if kmail is started standalone)


Thanks,
