--- Comment #4 from Tristan Miller <psychonaut at nothingisreal.com> ---
Confirming problem still occurs with KDE 4.9.2.  Some additional observations:

* I'm pretty sure this bug is specific to KDE on the host environment.  I am
not able to reproduce it when using GNOME 2 or IceWM.

* The problem occurs only when certain windows are opened with certain actions.
 The original bug report noted that the composer window fails to open when
"Reply" or "Forward" is used.  I can reproduce this behaviour.  However, the
composer window always appears for me when I use "New Message".  Some other
windows also fail to appear, such as Settings->Configure
KMail…->Accounts->Receiving->Modify….

Could a developer indicate whether there's any difference in how the composer
window is launched between the Reply/Forward commands and the New Message
command?  Perhaps different windowing API calls are used, and one of them works
whereas the other doesn't.
