Description Nate Graham 2022-01-13 16:32:38 UTC

Just built KWin from source today and now notifications steal focus when they appear. If I am in the middle of typing something when a notification appears, keyboard input is lost because it suddenly gets sent to the notification, which can't handle it. Once the notification times out or is closed, focus returns to the app.

This happens for all apps tested, including GTK and Electron apps, so it does not seem to be an issue in any particular UI toolkit's stack.

Always sync the setPanelBehavior to wayland

The previous patch moved some code that reapplied setRole in a way that
caused issues.
