I mean windows _from other desktops_. If I set the taskbar to show only windows from the current one (which is the only sensible setting), then I can’t know when a window from another desktop needs attention. I can only see it when I switch to that other desktop.

For the moment I have simply configured KWin to show chat windows on all the desktops. But it would be much more convenient to have them on certain desktops with suitable sets of related windows and see the notifications regardless of which desktop happens to be current.

So, I suggest displaying windows that demand attention on the taskbar even if they don’t belong to the current desktop, and when clicked they should take the user to their home desktop.
