The Xfce task switcher appears to be showing the tk widget '_class' option.  When tkinter create a tk widget, it by default sets the 'class' option to the tkinter class name.  This is 'Tk' and 'Toplevel' respectively for the visible windows in the example code and for IDLE. (IDLE withdraws the original root Tk window.) Why Xfce shows the '-class' rather than the title is an issue between tcl/tx, Xfce, and maybe the OS, but should not involve tkinter.  We are not going to change how it sets the 'class' option.  So I am closing this.

I opened issue 41775 for changing the IDLE Shell window title.
