Element desktop doesn't show which profile is being used in the title bar or tray icon bar

[Mikaela]

Steps to reproduce

1. Open Element
2. Open element again with the --profile whatever flag
3. Put them in tray or otherwise look for them and note what their names are.

Outcome

What did you expect?

I expected --profile whatever to tell me that it's whatever in tray bar or task bar.

What happened instead?

I am not told which Element is which

Operating system

Windows 11

Application version

Element-webin versio: 1.9.2 Olm version: 3.2.3

How did you install the app?

winget install Element.Element

Homeserver

matrix.org

Will you send logs?

No

This wouldn't scale, given that --profile-dir is another option and that is definitely not a user-friendly name.

How about showing at least the MXID or should this be closed in favour of https://github.com/vector-im/element-web/issues/2320 with which I wouldn't even need to use --profile?

[3nprob]

There is an open PR over at https://github.com/vector-im/element-desktop/pull/396/files which allows users to change the tray icon per profile by creating/editing a file ${ELEMENT_PROFILE_DIR}/config.json:

{"tray_icon_path": "path_to_trayicon.png"}

Help testing wanted.
