I understood the Window Class of an application is hard coded, all a user like 
me can do is select it.  I can't claim to understand this correctly, or 
furthermore understand how the X11 properties transpose over to a Wayland

icccm.html#WM_CLASS_Property

Either way, the good news is others have been annoyed similarly by this 
behaviour and raised a bug report.  It seems to be a regression bug:
