It's just that I was told by multiple people "app_id maps to WM_CLASS, so should
be considered static". And IMHO it's uncommon / unexpected to change the app_id,
so I wanted to mention this use case explicitly so Wayland implementors will be
aware of it.

My intention was to express, that if you change the app_id to change the icon,
don't expect that the previous grouping will persist. This is obvious, and from
LO POV I want the document windows grouped by type, eventually, so I'm fine
skipping it. The compositor may do whatever it want based on the app_id, but LO
will be able to offer the correct grouping "hint".
