Add StartupWMClass=cura.real in order to group windows properly in Gnome and more. 
This has been infuriating me for the past few weeks. The result of this change is that when you use Cura as built from source or via thopiekar's PPA the Gnome shortcut will act only as a launcher for potentially infinite instances of Cura. That is, if you keep clicking it, it will open up more and more instances of Cura. This is because the class cura.real is not present or specified in the desktop file. See this askubuntu thread on the topic;

https://askubuntu.com/questions/367396/what-does-the-startupwmclass-field-of-a-desktop-file-represent/367851#367851

Simply adding "StartupWMClass=cura.real" allows Cura to behave like a normal application in all desktop environments that implement .desktop. Cura can now spawn children and in gnome in particular has options for spawning a New Window, rather than a runaway "Spawn more instances" as you click the launcher. This has been particularly annoying for me, as in a makerspace I attend where I have set up a dedicated Cura machine people have been opening several instances of Cura because of this flaw.

README.md

Cura

This is the new, shiny frontend for Cura. Check daid/LegacyCura for the legacy Cura that everyone knows and loves/hates. We re-worked the whole GUI code at Ultimaker, because the old code started to become unmaintainable.

Logging Issues

For crashes and similar issues, please attach the following information:

  • (On Windows) The log as produced by dxdiag (start -> run -> dxdiag -> save output)
  • The Cura GUI log file, located at
    • %APPDATA%\cura\<Cura version>\cura.log (Windows), or usually C:\Users\\<your username>\AppData\Roaming\cura\<Cura version>\cura.log
    • $USER/Library/Application Support/cura/<Cura version>/cura.log (OSX)
    • $USER/.local/share/cura/<Cura version>/cura.log (Ubuntu/Linux)

If the Cura user interface still starts, you can also reach this directory from the application menu in Help -> Show settings folder

For additional support, you could also ask in the #cura channel on FreeNode IRC. For help with development, there is also the #cura-dev channel.
