            Bug ID: 366101
           Summary: Show Desktop | Add Widgets => Desktop is hidden behind
                    other windows
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: 5.6.3
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Desktop Containment
          Assignee: se...@kde.org
          Reporter: mcfle...@vrplumber.com

The use case is this following:

* Add a widget to the desktop from a machine with lots of running applications

When you click "Show Desktop" the desktop is displayed and you can right click
to select "Add Widgets", but as soon as the "Add Widgets" window opens the
desktop is hidden behind the previously hidden windows.

This seems like it may be the idea of the "Show Desktop" widget being closer to
"Peek at Desktop for a Moment" than what a user would expect from "Show
Desktop". That is, the effect of "Peek at Desktop"  is a momentary "reveal"
that should be replaced as soon as you do anything, while "Show Desktop" in the
user's mind is closer to "Minimise all Windows".

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open some applications
2. Click Show Desktop
3. Right click on Desktop
4. Click Add Widgets

Actual Results:  
All windows previously hidden "pop back" so that you can no longer see the
desktop.

Expected Results:  
Allow the user to complete selection and placement of widgets.
