window buttons fails grouping libreoffice instances

Hello.

The window buttons plugin fails to group properly the different instances of opened libreoffice documents. It does group some and some not, with not apparent logic to me.

I think would be nice to have this working fine.
Is there a way to fix that?
¿May be LO should do something to its code, or xfce?

I am now in xfce 4.14, but the same happened in 4.12. Libreoffice 6.1.5.2 (but have tried other versions too)

System:    Host: mx Kernel: 4.19.0-9-amd64 x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 8.3.0 
           Desktop: Xfce 4.14.2 tk: Gtk 3.24.5 info: xfce4-panel wm: xfwm4 dm: LightDM 1.26.0 
           Distro: MX-19.2_x64 patito feo May 31  2020 base: Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)

Thanks, woistemeinauto.
I once used dockbarx but didn't know about docklike.
I will try them.
