The screen sharing functionality is handled by a mix of protocols of the windows manger and service providers announced over dbus. Even if you want to map GUI windows to processes you would do so by getting a list of windows from the window manager and getting the pid property of the windows, but if you have a list of windows you don't need to scan processes anymore... There might (I'm not sure) be valid use-cases for this behaviour but I'm pretty confident screen sharing of specific windows isn't part of it.
