Demonstration

SUMMARY
In Konsole, you can create a profile with a semi-transparent background and with it blurred. Everything works fine, exactly until you enable the "Wobbly window" effect in the KDE Plasma settings. Once enabled, any movement of the window causes the blurring to be disabled. After that it is restored, but it starts to flicker a lot.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a profile in Konsole with a transparent background and background blur.
2. Switch to this profile. 
3. Enable "Wobbly window" effect in settings (Settings -> Workspace Behavior -> Desktop Effects)
4. Move the Konsole window.

OBSERVED RESULT
Disabling blur, and afterward artifacts (blur starts flickering)

EXPECTED RESULT
The blur doesn't have to disappear. There should be no flickering.

I checked, this applies to all applications that use blur. So it's fair to edit the post and move it to the kwin group
