            Bug ID: 449391
           Summary: Shutting down when applications are opened can cause a
                    lot of glitches
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: master
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
          Reporter: ncqm3...@anonaddy.me
                CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: 1.0

SUMMARY

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Open multiple apps and shutdown. I suggest doing this with Qt and GTK apps
together.

OBSERVED RESULT
Currently, shutting down with applications opened seems to cause a race
condition or something, where applications are closing and Plasma itself is
also ending its processes. This causes some glitches like: window frame
disappearing, the shadow of the window frame losing its alpha channel and
displaying a black/white background and desktop freezing for some seconds.

EXPECTED RESULT
Maybe Plasma components shouldn't shutdown until applications are closed? In
Windows, there is a smooth experience as if the user is closing a lot of
windows at the same time. Also, there is a screen informing that some programs
are blocking the shutdown and ask the user to force close them while agreeing
that data will be lost.
