Yes, that's how it works. It was meant for convenience but it's probably
not that useful. Still, it's there now.
It'd be nice to have an exact-match-only flag or something but at the
moment you can use the window id - something like:
x=$(tmux lsw -F'#{window_id},#{window_name}'|awk -F, '/,Project DB$/ {print
$1}')
[ -n "$x" ] && tmux killw -t$x
