This non closeable windows are probably a cache side effect over the map canvas managed by QtWebEngine. 

Sound like a compatibility issue with OpenGL and QtWebEngine (again)...

We know the problem from Bug 412591, it hadn't been reported for a while. The window is from Marble.

With next digiKam 7.4.0 release, AppImage bundle is compiled using a more recent Linux Mageia 7.1 host. Last stable Qt 5.15.2 and KF5 5.84 are used. ImageMagick codec 7 and libav 58 (ffmpeg) are used to supports extra image and video formats.
