Starting with version 0.95.4 Windowmaker doesn't behave the same way

It is still possible to execute additional instances of the application
in the wmdock using right-click and then selecting "Launch" from the
menu but this is not practical at all in every day use.
I suggest restoration of the behavior from pre-0.95.4 version
I don't mind either way (not using that option) but isn't double click
with Ctrl pressed sufficient to launch another instance? Double click
brings forward the running application and if it behaved differently for
some applications it would be inconsistent.
BTW, what is the meaning of the "Shared application icon" option in the
Application Specific Attributes window?
It's what it says, that multiple instances of one application will share a
single icon. For example you can have a single icon for all terminal
windows so you can hide them at once. (Actually on *step the icons belong
to applications which can have multiple windows. So these windows all
belong to a single application and thus icon. This can be emulated by the
shared application icon when the windows are separate instances of an X
application.)
