A patch for this is in bugzilla now:

Just tell me what you end up using for WM_CLASS and we can fill in the keyboard.

You mean more into the panel?  Well...I'd rather discuss what your
ideas are for the UI and we can figure out how to implement it from
there.  There are a variety of issues with using GTK+ in the UI; the
biggest two are that we can't really do it easily from the overview
mode right now, and we don't yet have a "shell like" GTK+ style.
