Specially caused error

SUMMARY

When I click on "Shutdown" and "Restart" in kickoff, there is a fair chance that "ksmserver-logout-greeter" will run without focus: runs in the background of other windows, also overlaps its taskbar.

I decided to check in a new user and this problem is also observed. In KDE 5.26.4 (Manjaro, live-cd) this problem is not present. Before 5.27.7 this problem was not present.

It has the characteristics of a heisenbug. But you can call it as follows:
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a default panel
2. Delete one widget or more (important, don't close notifications that they have been deleted)
3. Click "shutdown" or "reboot" in kickoff
Probability of causing a bug: above average

OBSERVED RESULT
ksmserver-logout-greeter will run without focus (_NET_WM_STATE_FOCUSED)

EXPECTED RESULT
"ksmserver-logout-greeter" will run with focus (ahead of windows and the taskbar does not overlap it)

Sorry it took us so long to get to this. Are you still able to reproduce the issue in Plasma 6.2.5 or later? Thanks!
