  Not exactly this was happening, but something rather similar inspired the change: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=361342
  
  In fact I hoped to be able to work around the mentioned bug as I thought it results in a complete screen being removed, but that's not exactly the situation.

  yes that could happen, but would be good if that's the case. If in step 3 KWin would not ignore the strut it might result in all windows getting resized to very small. Step 4 results in an re-evaluation of all struts, so if it's valid it will be applied again.
