When the application is started manually or when restoring?
Or differently phrased: is the splash screen interfering with restore or 
session safe?

Usually we don't do splashscreens in favor of showing the main UI quickly 
enough, potentially fully or partially disabled while it is being initialized.

However, I think Kleopatra is also being used as part of the GPG4Win toolset 
and splashscreens are very common on that platform.

Is there any indication in the version control system's log supporting that 
theory?

Cheers,
Kevin
