... or rather, it gives it to some windows. Max one per exectuable.

If you manage to move the window around (e.g. I moved it to a different workspace with shortcuts), then at some time it gets a title bar of its own.

Just don't "Restore" it (i.e. set to not maximized).

I don't understand what that means. Are you nesting your session? What application can I use to reproduce the problem?

Replying to Antoine Martin:

I don't understand what that means. Are you nesting your session?

I usually attach via the familiar Win10,xpra4 client. Today I am using the server itself. So, instead of closing/rerunning applications, I did xpra-attach on the server that I had done xpra-start

What application can I use to reproduce the problem?

gnome-terminal, Sublime Text.

May work with multiple instances of LibreOffice too

I tried it now again, and it seems to have worked, without changing anything that I can think of 😕

I hate those heisen/zero-day-bugs ...
