REVISION SUMMARY
  BUG: 394119
  
  I love an auto-hiding panel.
  
  However, if any window wants attention, the panel will *never* hide until I have given focus to each and every attention-seeking window across all desktops. This infuriates me.
  
  The attached patch fixes this behaviour, so the panel will only appear when I mouse over its activation area or it's being configured, but not if windows want attention.
  
  I expect there's a more elegant/appropriate way to do it, but I'm not familiar with KDE's codebase so I started here.
