--in plasma 5.13 there are cases the libtaskmanager
shows two launchers because we delay the launcher
removal for the bouncing animation. A way
to fix this by the user is to disable all startups
through plasma systemsettings->launch feedback
for the taskmanager. But because this is a
default plasma option many users would feel
uncomfortable when the launching animation
breaks. Such apps were gimp and inkscape.
This patch handles that case in order to provide
a nice no-breaking launcher animation for
these apps also.
--when only launchers are shown and the user
has chosen to disable any active indicator
then the plasmoid should behave only as
a smart launchers list with no window
capabilities
--in some cases after activity changes some tasks
are shown empty because some ghost tasks are created.
This was tracked down to hidden TaskDelegates spacers.
--libtaskmanager sometimes adds items and
hasnt set its full settings. After the addition
it updates some of the settings. This fix
is trying to fix that circumstances by not having
any blocking warnings
--trying to show all tasks in all states directly
when the environment is in !compositing
--block all animations (removals/showings) when
the environment is in !compositing
--when two or more consequently launchers were bouncing
their animation was broken because they were changing
places. This patch catches these cases and provides
a proper way to show these animations.
--identify startups better in order to distinguish
them to those that belong to launcher and should be
shown immediately and those that dont belong in any
launcher and they shouldnt be shown
