I had a try at making a unit test but couldn't reproduce the crash I was \
seeing in Plasma; deleting the m_widget and m_window before calling \
KWindowEffect::whatever didn't seem to be enough.

Could you try what the value of WId is in these cases? I wouldn't be \
surprised if it were 0.
Oh and that code has unit tests, so I would appreciate if you extend the \
tests for that case.</pre> </blockquote>

Here is a full backtrace of it being needed: \

I can guard against it inside plasma with
if (!QApplication::closingDown()) around the KWindowEffects calls.
I changed to guarding in the library as I can imagine others hitting it in \

inputs.
