How can I make Chromium app windows count as "their own application" in the Unity launcher?
Making a new Chromium profile for the app works around the problem (this is specific to 11.04, 11.10 fixes this issue at the Unity-level.):
To open a website as an app window, add
--app=http://example.orgto the launcher parameters for chromium. Making and using a new profile is as easy as adding--user-data-dir=/path/to/profile
As long as you put a different path to each web application they will be treated as separate applications.
