Hi!

Not quite sure whether this is a  kwin bug or a kicker one. When clicking on a \
systray icon, say kmix, and the window is hidden it normally gets shown. But this \
only works when staying on the same desktop. If you show the window, switch to a \
different desktop and then want to activate the  window by clicking on the tray icon, \
nothing happens on first click and on second the window appears, but minimized. So \
you have to click again on the taskbar entry. This is first confusing, seeing only a \
minimize animation out of the nothing, and later very annoying. (Seems that the \
window gets minimized on desktop switch, hidden on first click, and shown again on \
current desktop, still minimized)

PS: Also it feels somehow wrong to me to hide a window that is shown but hidden \
behind other windows, by clicking on the tray icon. A click on the tray icon should \
IMO bring it to front. I would even say it  should never close a window at all, \
that's what the 'X' is for. And instead just show it where ever it is.
