Changing Mullvad's visibility also changes Cursor's visibility

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to System tray settings -> Entries 
2. Change visibility of an item (e.g. always shown or always hidden)

OBSERVED RESULT
If I change the visibility of Mullvad, then Cursor changes to match the same setting and vice versa. This doesn't happen with other items, just these two. Not sure if it has anything to do with the apps themselves (why would it?) or rather if the first and third items' visibility settings are linked somehow.

EXPECTED RESULT
If I change one item, the others should all stay the same.

Comment 1 Nate Graham 2025-10-23 16:09:31 UTC 
This suggests both widgets have the same internal application ID, which means it's ultimately got the same root cause as Bug 470840, even if these aren't Electron apps.
