Note that there exists DockManager API for exactly this purpose and
IconTasks is implementing it. Also Chrome/Chromium was integrating with it
(IconTasks using DockManager), I don't think it does anymore, though their
dockmanager handler checking is weird (basically they check for some
ubuntu/unity lib being loaded in memory), but it may have changed since I
last looked.
