Yeah, I second this request. If you use the non-Flatpak version of Bottles, it handles this properly and shows program icon, but with the Flatpak it shows the Bottles icon instead. Drives me crazy, but the flatpak version is less buggy in other regards, so it's the lesser of two evils, I guess. But even in the Bottles team's example .desktop entry YouTube video, you can see it's running the wrong icon. It needs to appear is though the app is running natively, as it does in the non-Flatpak version.
I would love this as well, especially given that the guide/docs heavily encourage the use of the Flatpak.
In the meantime, is there any way to set panel/taskbar icons manually in the Flatpak version? I now have multiple apps using Bottles and running them at the same time gets very confusing very quickly!
