In Wayland the window app_id needs to match the name of the desktop file in order for windows to be correctly associated. This fixes Plasma (and presumably GNOME too) so that the Element icon is shown in the top left of the title bar and directly underneath the window in the overview.

Looks good! Note that this causes Element in the Budgie Icon Task List to somewhat break: it does start Element, but under a different icon. Nothing major, you just have to unpin and pin it again.

Yes, that's always the downside of moving a desktop file like this. Existing "pins" break and need to be un-pinned and then re-pinned.
