For what it's worth, I usually don't have the same document or directory
opened
in different apps, but when switching apps I'm looking for a software, not
for a
document. Especially in the case of Emacs, regardless of whether my current
file
is main.tex or program.py, the place to go to for edition is Emacs and
that's what I
look for in the window switcher.
The buffer name is only useful whenever I have two emacs frames on the same
workspace.
And I guess I always felt a bit annoyed when switching to Emacs window,
without
being able to pin-point exactly why... but now I suspect that it is because
the default
frame name does not make it as easy to identify emacs as other software.
