This should be a really simple fix but I tried a few things and nothing is working. I don't want to hold up a release on this issue, so I removed the milestone.

Found an explanation that may help:

gnome-shell tries to match the window to an an app (a ShellApp instance) and use that name. The code do that is here: http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-shell/tree/src/shell-window-tracker.c#n328

But if it fails to find ShellApp for the window then it falls back to using the ICCCM specified WM_CLASS (spec is at http://tronche.com/gui/x/icccm/sec-4.html#s-4.1.2.5) here: http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-shell/tree/src/shell-app.c#n361

The thread itself is for GTK but this looks like the plausible source of the problem. And in this case, this issue should affect all gnome-based distros and not just tails.

I'm closing this issue, since we've made some improvements in this front. Notably, in the latest Tails release, using the candidate installation instructions, I can verify that this issue is resolved.
