SUMMARY
When I set "Icons-only Task Manager" grouped tasks to "Shows large window previews", and click a grouped task, arrow keys can select windows not visible and not from the current app.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In "Icons-only Task Manager Settings", in Behavior tab, set "Clicking grouped task: Shows large window previews" and apply.
2. Open multiple windows under an app, and press Super+Number or click the app's icon. This pops up full-screen previews of the app's windows.
3. Use the arrow keys to navigate between apps.

OBSERVED RESULT
The focus disappears. Pressing Enter opens a window not from the app you clicked.

EXPECTED RESULT
The blue focus rectangle only travels between visible windows, coming from the app you clicked.

WindowHeapDelegate used to have hidden property. It was renamed to
activeHidden, but WindowHeap has not been adjusted to the new name.
