Research direction
Investigate how iced creates its window, focusing on window class names and flags that might cause Nvidia Shadowplay to recognize it as a game. Check the `iced winit` and `iced graphics` modules for window initialization code. Review the existing comments on the issue for any additional clues or suggested approaches.
