SUMMARY
Since some time, about 6.5 maybe earlier, there is a fake application in my
plasma panel. It has the generic plasmashell icon and the name "plasma
desktop". clicking on it tries to open plasmashell, journalctl gives this error

Unable to assign QString to int
It seems kwin or plasmashell detect any plasma component as a window and
display an application for that.
Hovering over the icon gives a window preview of the window preview, looping
infinitely (See video)
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use Plasma 6, wayland only, no Qt5 support on NixOS
2. see the fake window in the panel
3. profit
OBSERVED RESULT
The fake window exists since a long time. I tried adding a kwin window
exception for it with no luck.
The window is not shown in the Alt+Tab switcher or the application overview,
only in the panel.
EXPECTED RESULT
no fake windows
