Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/JakeStanger/ironbar/issues/1075

Describe the bug
with multiple windows of the same app the popup is used without any alternative

To reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Launch a browser
open another browser window

Expected behavior
a config option to have separate items on bar for windows. Or at least to disable the popup

System information:

Distro: ALTlinux p11
Compositor: Pinnacle
Ironbar version: git HEAD

Configuration
launcher used

Additional context
popup works but with sloppy focus it just hangs and distracts a user
