With quotes it doesn't match the Wire's window name, causing the window to not be grouped under its icon in Gnome.

Motivation for this change
Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

With quotes it doesn't match the Wire's screen, causing the window to not be grouped under its icon in Gnome.

I can't test this change because of the platform. But some searching around does seem to indicate the string should not be quoted. This is not explicitly called out in the freedesktop specification but can be read between the lines, all ASCII characters allowed, no info about escaping quotes.

It seemed to work with GNOME wayland session, are you using xorg @arianvp?

I'm using Wayland on 19.09 and without this change I always get a detached window

Yeah, quotes are valid characters to use within string values. They are useful for example when passing arguments containing space as part of Exec key.

Did not verify that Wire is the proper WMClass but quotes are almost surely not part of it.
