Wine's Wayland Driver Will Finally Set The Window Title


A small but notable patch was merged to upstream Wine overnight: the window title for application windows is now actually set under Wayland.

Baking since the end of February has been this merge request to to set the Wayland app-id from the process name so the window title is properly set. Finally it's landed and will be part of the Wine 9.8 bi-weekly development release for addressing this small but notable defect in the Wayland support. Other ongoing Wine Wayland activities can be found via this merge request search.
