shell_app_compare() (which is only used as sort function for shell_app_system_get_running() nowadays) currently takes the visibility of an app's windows into account, e.g. applications with visible windows (non-minimized windows on current workspace) sort earlier than applications without. This translate traditional window-switcher behavior to applications, but we stopped sorting by workspace in the app-switcher a while ago, and with the new auto-minimization behavior of fullscreen windows it is more confusing than helpful - in fact, since mutter commit 7e61ef09369a we no longer do this for the window list, so it makes sense to apply the same to application sorting. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707663
