Bug Description

Binary package hint: netbook-launcher

The launcher can only handle single instancing for application/windows it launches. If you launch a window from another source (say Alt+F2), the launcher won't match it to an application and therefore clicking on the same app in the launcher will launch a new instance.

Is this how it's supposed to work? Maybe I'm mistaken, but if I understand correctly, you want to prohibit more than one instance of an app from running in UNR?
