Well, I don't deny the fact that the current behavior is counter-intuitive when
it comes to switching between LibreOffice windows. The task manager doesn't
have such problems because it checks only the app id. On the other hand, KWin
has more sophisticated heuristics to verify that the given two clients belong
to the same application.
The only way to fix this problem is to make sure that we check the window class
first. Although, frankly, I don't know what impact it will have on the rest of
KWin. We use AbstractClient::belongToSameApplication() quite a lot in core
code. Changing any of its details may have serious consequences.
