That makes sense. So the question is, how do you set the icon title in
gnome-terminal?

    [EMAIL PROTECTED]:551]$ gnome-terminal --icon foo
    Option --icon is no longer supported in this version of
    gnome-terminal; you might want to create a profile with the
    desired setting, and use the new --window-with-profile option 

However, the profile settings do not have an icon name field.

I guess what you're saying is that there is one of two bugs in
gnome-terminal: either the terminal name isn't getting applied to the
icon name, or the icon name field is missing.

Thanks, Thomas.
