Bug Description

(By "Launcher indicators" I mean the little arrows which show the window count.)

** Steps to reproduce **

  1. Open one Firefox window. Notice that the window count is correct (one indicator on the left of the Firefox launcher icon).

  2. Open a second Firefox window.

Now, the number of indicators is still one. If I click the launcher icon (activating the spread), the number of indicators is refreshed to show the real number of Firefox windows. The right count is also refreshed if I click on a different Launcher icon.

I've seen this problem with other applications: Chrom{e,ium}, GNOME Terminal, Nautilus/Files.
