[New-bugs-announce] [issue17622] Python sets wrong pid in window properties

[Yuri]

New submission from Yuri:

When I click on "Close Window" button for the unresponsive python-based app 'meld', message from window manager shows up offering to kill the non-existent pid. It looks like python libs set wrong pid for windows when python multithreading is in use by this app.

Here are my original PRs with detailed description for kde4 and meld:
