In KWin it can be seen when e.g. activating Present Windows while Kickoff is open or the calendar. Also in Alt+Tab this could happen.

KWin will show an icon - always - in the worst case it will be the generic X icon. If we go for that we must make sure that Plasma window are excluded from all KWin elements.
