helion runs in the background but i cant alt tab to it #1732

Description

in this video i was able to catch a bug i sometimes get. I guess this is something with how wayland windows get processed, and not an issue with helion itself.

Basically, Helion "merges" in the taskbar with whatever launcher it was used to launch it. This also happens with a console. And if you are unlucky helion cannot be accessed by the alt tab wheel anymore. At first, it kinda works, but after uninteractivity or a lot of alt tabbing it does this merging and it stops.

Dsda has its own icon in the task bar, and woof as well. I don't know if woof is xorg or native wayland, but dsda is going through the xorg compatibility thing. I tested with chocolate doom and it bugs out like helion does as well.

I forgot to clear up the icons in the task bar, as i was recording and editing the video on the bug.
