Description Martin 2020-05-12 13:10:26 UTC

SUMMARY
When launching a new Konsole tab (not window) via `konsole --new-tab`, Konsole opens another tab correctly, but does not demand focus.

This is an issue for example when --new-tab is used in a Custom Shortcut, where Konsole is likely not to be previously in focus already.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Bind a Custom Shortcut to `konsole --new-tab`
2. Use the shortcut - Konsole launches and correctly focuses
3. Minimize the Konsole tab/unfocus it
4. Use the shorcut - Konsole launches another tab, but stays in background

OBSERVED RESULT
Konsole stays in background

EXPECTED RESULT
Konsole should demand focus and be in foreground
