Is your suggestion for improvement related to a problem?
If you filename your *.desktop-file (on linux) different than the WM_CLASS then you have two problems
- first you can't add them to favourites via right-click
- secondly jabref is twice in the menu, one pinned one, and one for the opened instances
Describe the solution you'd like
change the WM_CLASS of the linux-application to jabref
the current WM_CLASS is org.jabref.gui.JabRefMain and can be checked with xprop
so you have to name the *.desktop-file as org.jabref.gui.JabRefMain.desktop which is very unconvetional/inconvenient (and maybe problematic because it contains dots . the typos in the filename could be easily be overseen) .
