I'm using Gnome Shell with the Dash To Dock extension, but Ubuntu Unity has the same issue:



I use firefox as my main browser and want to use the firefox developer edition for, well, developing.



But even though these 2 use separate binaries their windows are grouped in the taskbar.



This is so incredibly annoying, is there a way to turn this off and only group by binary location?

          I had to manually override the X11 WM_CLASS, which you can do as an argument to the firefox binary:



          /opt/firefox-developer/firefox --class=firefoxdev


          I just added this to the .desktop entry and now I have a separate firefox taskbar entry.
