SUMMARY

This bug report is specifically about applet popups for applets on a desktop containment, and not about panels.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add a compact applet to the desktop, for example: Battery & Brightness, or Bluetooth.
2. Click on the applet's compact representation. (Popup with applet's full representation should open).
3. Click on an empty space on a desktop.

OBSERVED RESULT
Applet's popup stays open.

EXPECTED RESULT
Applet's popup should lose focus and close.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Arch Linux 
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.80
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.240.0
Qt Version: 6.6.0
Kernel Version: 6.5.9-arch2-1 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: X11
Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M/PCIe/SSE2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I'm using single screen (laptop's built-in one), 100% scaling, nothing fancy.

Combined with https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=476692 it becomes challenging to close popups in some cases.

This used to "just work" in Plasma 5 times. Also the bug started happening quite a while ago in plasmoidviewer (like, a couple of months).
