As a result, a lock file
\c /var/run/single-instance-locks/myApp/instance.lock is created.
\c /var/run/single-instance-locks/usr/bin/myApp/instance.lock is created.
If applauncherd cannot acquire the lock, it tries to find the corresponding
window and activates it.
Single-instance functionality requires that the shown window belongs to the invoked
application binary. For example if the invoked application starts a new application
as a plugin and the plugin shows the window, single-instance could be used only if
plugin's window XProperty WM_COMMAND is manually set to correspond with the application
name used in the single-instance lock file.
Consider using --single-instance instead of the single instance functionality
provided by D-Bus, because it very likely is much faster.
