[Bug 1542028] Re: xapp window should reflect app name rather than "root xmir"

 

we need to do something for users as they don't really care or want to
know that the "Mir surface represents the whole X11 desktop. So it's not
an app window but is the X11 root window."

unfortunately running -rootless we have the splash window problems.

and right, this is exactly what we want
"we might be able to do is somehow deduce at the X server level what the focussed window title is and switch the X server's window title to match it."
