             Bug #: 33283
           Summary: Configuration of WM_NAME is delayed for virtual
                    desktop
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.5.26
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: trivial
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: me at mkaito.com
    Classification: Unclassified


Many window managers rely on X properties for window management. For example,
it is very common to use WM_NAME and WM_CLASS to apply management rules. This
feature depends on these properties being set when a new client is spawned.
When running an application inside a virtual desktop, such as with `wine
explorer /desktop=whatever,1920x1080 "C://Program Files/Whatever/Foo.exe"`, we
end up with a desktop where WM_NAME = "whatever - Wine Desktop".

However, the configuration of this property is delayed, causing wine desktops
to be handled incorrectly, since X properties are only checked upon client
creation.
