Note that we wouldn't need to do it for individual frames. If emacs was
started in non-daemon mode, we would use some string X for all its
frames, and if emacs was started in daemon mode, we would use some
string Y for all its frames. 

But as I said, I also prefer the approach that has only a single
.desktop file, so we wouldn't need to bother with this at all.

Best,
Tim
