what strange, is that we get a first google-chrome window:

res_name : google-chrome(2588230); res_class : Google-chrome(2589030)

then a second:
res_name : crx_nckgahadagoaajjgafhacjanaoiihapd(25884e0); res_class :
Google-chrome(25892c0)

The second has a convoluted name, which is usually for webapps.
If it was a normal google-chrome window, it should have the same name/class
as the first one.

How did you open the 2nd window ? maybe google-chrome automatically
considers a 2nd window as being a webapps ...
