Fixes #2271

I tested again under openbox, the names set here are used only during the session (also when reloading the panel). I don't think we could and should make that work with the most commons WMs or Compositors.

Please wait until after 2.3 is released.

Why? Shipping that broken thing with working switcher in 3 compositors now?

Why?

It has been so for a very long time, and making hasty decisions isn't good in general. There may be WMs, with which it works.

Kwin, openbox and xfwm4 aren't among them for sure and on Wayland it can't be edited at all. At least we could hide it under Wayland?
