We've defined the group leader hint to mean "an application" -
i.e. all windows with the same group leader are in the same
application.

libwnck is broken right now and uses the client leader instead for
WnckApplication, though in practice the two leaders always define the
same thing, this was just a not-paying-attention bug on my part.

Anyhow, I believe the pager already uses WnckApplication for grouping...
