plasma-desktop sometimes crashes when I log into my system.

Comment 7 Aaron J. Seigo 2013-06-15 19:31:38 UTC 
Git commit 11fd0f2c09dac9bd6cc559041eeeaa98553ebc4d by Aaron Seigo.
Committed on 15/06/2013 at 21:30.
Pushed by aseigo into branch 'master'.

don't crash when the list is empty

the do/while construct would die on an empty list. in theory this
shouldn't happen because we are asking with a Task pointer which
should only exist if there are, well, windows. however, due to the
async nature of windowing systems, during the time of the call all
of this can change.
