When you open a minimized window you can minimize it mid air, I think it would be better if was waiting for the animation to finish and then the user's clicks are counted again. It could irritate the user if he accidentally clicks an application window in the task bar twice and it could also help the CPU cycles and battery in case someone opens and closes a window constantly. Furthermore it can hide some regressions which may make the user think KDE is slow when an app is running on full speed in the background..

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click to open window from task manager
2. click it again in mid opening animation
3. it minimizes again

Actual Results:  
it stays closed

Expected Results:  
The application should have finished the animation and meanwhile ignore all incoming requests to minimize the window.

I think it would be similar to Windows (7) then?

Is there a problem to letting you re-minimize it in mid-animation? What if you realized you de-minimized it without meaning to?

No response, and the current behavior seems reasonable enough.
