This does work, hmm.

Doing echo $WINDOWID  returns 48234503  (for instance)  which in hex
is 0x2E00007

But running 'xprop' and clicking on konsole tells me
WM_CLIENT_LEADER(WINDOW): window id # 0x2e00002

Why is there this difference please?  If I run kdialog with the number
0x2E00002 instead (so
kdialog --msgbox Hello --embed 48234498 )    it doesn't become transient.
