NB: This is due to a well-known problem: /usr/bin/idle does not open any
windows itself; rather, it is a script that tells python to open
windows. For example, xprop gives

WM_NAME(STRING) = "Python Shell"
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "37676240", "Toplevel"

So Unity cannot tell what application opened the window, and thus cannot
assign an icon.
