But this message is very useful when debugging oneself... Perhaps we want to obfuscate it in qubes-manager just before copying to shared clipboard?

But the log already contains Windows IDs, and one can always use xwininfo to find out which window it is, including the titlebar.

If the window doesn't exist and the bug cannot be reproduced, then it's not a ticketable bug :)
Anyway, it's unacceptable to leak user's personal info into logs.
