Bug Description
Binary package hint: xchat
When using Xchat with Unity, launcher seems to start second and third instances of Xchat when the Xchat icon is clicked, rather than bringing an existing Xchat window to the foreground. I'm not sure whether this is an issue in Xchat or Unity, or both, so will create bug tasks against both.

I'd suspect xchat, which doesn't seem to prevent the execution of multiple instances, by using libunique for example.
xchat is correctly matched by bamf and represented as running on the launcher, with the mini-expose properly representing the 2 distinct chat windows.
