Description Christian Persch 2018-02-05 22:54:49 UTC 
The icon title is an obsolete concept, only used on X, as an alternative to the window title for the iconified state. The corresponding API call gdk_window_set_icon_name() is a no-op on all non-X backends; and even on X is not actually used by gnome-shell.

It's also unclear how title stacking (bug 699819) should work (should it push both titles to their separate stacks, or what).

Plus, I got totally confused the other day by before realizing that g[dt]k_window_set_icon_name have absolutely nothing to do with each other. Of course it's not a good argument for removing, just mentioning it for fun :)
