I'm on Ubuntu 15.04, Unity 7.3.2+15.04.20150420-0ubuntu1
I run several Firefox profiles (`firefox -no-remote -P myprofile`). When I minimize Firefox windows, I can't find them again.

Bug description:
  [Test Case]
  The bug has no clear generic test case, but the proposed fix eliminates possibilities for the problem to happen.

  [Regression Potential]
  Launchers keeping track of applications could be broken.

  Original description:

  Binary package hint: unity

  The problem occurred on the Unity Launcher where you can't know for
  sure if the application is running or if it is just a shortcut.

  Since some minutes ago, Unity lost track of the running instance of my
  web browser (Chromium, I am using it right now). Every time I click on
  Chromium's icon I get a new instance instead of the running one. If I
  minimize any Chromium windows, the only way to reach them back is
  through Alt + Tab, since clicking the icon will give me a new window,
  as if it were not running.

  I would expect that clicking on the icon of the running application,
  it would restore the existing window instead of creating a new one,
  like what is happening right now with the other program I am using.

  I don't know what made Unity lose track of Chromium, and I don't know
  how to reproduce the problem.
