well, the man page is not really clear, but sort of implies that you
can actually use the class name of the application in IconManagerDontShow{}.
i use that e.g.
IconManagerDontShow {
"XTerm"
}
and it works fine for me (although i am running vtwm, it should be the
same). so, as long as the class name for that window did not change,
it should not be displayed.
