            Bug ID: 384760
           Summary: absence of proper (current) titles in Task Manager
                    where, for example, many windows are opened in rapid
                    succession by Firefox or SeaMonkey
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: 5.10.95
          Platform: Other
                OS: FreeBSD
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Task Manager
          Assignee: h...@kde.org
          Reporter: grahamper...@gmail.com

2017-09-16 04:49:10 screenshot of the bug affecting nine of fourteen windows of
Firefox

I should treat the 'Task Manager' component of this report as tentative,
because: 

* symptoms of the bug are not limited to Task Manager

– in each affected window, there's an inappropriate suffix e.g. ' <2>' in the
title bar (but not in the tab bar). 

In the first attachment, a screenshot, the title should be: 

> Memleax - Mozilla Firefox

===========
Symptoms
===========

Task Manager shows: 

> Mozilla Firefox <6>

Firefox shows: 

> Memleax - Mozilla Firefox <6>


I have more screenshots, from that incident and others. 


===========
Workaround
===========

None. 

If I'm lucky, the next launch of Firefox will restore its (dozen or so) windows
in an order that causes a previously bugged window to be not bugged – but I
never get a bug-free session (it's most common for me to find ten of twelve
windows bugged). 

High impact, because I rely very heavily on dragging a tab of Firefox from one
window to another, which is unreasonably difficult when most of the others are
unidentifiable. 


===========
Environment
===========

KDE Plasma 5 from Area 51. 

The issue began following a pkg(8) upgrade that involved an update from 5.10.5
to 5.10.95.

Whilst that -CURRENT is quite outdated, I doubt that the underlying build of
the OS is a factor in this bug.
