[Konsole-devel] Bug#37893: Ability to change WM_CLASS attribute

[peter.royal at pobox.com]

Package: konsole
Version: KDE 2.2.2 
Severity: wishlist
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

xterm allows one to change the WM_CLASS attribute of the window via the -name command line parameter. This is useful because it can be used to prevent the KDE taskbar from grouping terminals together as like tasks. Konsole does take a -name parameter, but it does not change the WM_CLASS, it is always "konsole", "toplevel". It would be nice to be able to change the WM_CLASS attribute of a konsole instance via a command line switch.
