xmms sets WM_CLASS to "XMMS_Player", "xmms" for the player window
and to "XMMS_Playlist", "xmms" for the playlist.
I need to set XClassHintResName to "XMMS_Player" for the starting panel
entry to be correctly removed.
I don't quite understand this neccessity (sp?) as the second entry in
the property is "xmms" and equals the binary's and .desktop's name.
