Chromium flatpak should allow the use of the Overview effect (in KDE) when in full-screen mode #284

When you use the Chromium flatpak in KDE and enable full-screen mode (F11), it is not possible to launch the Overview effect (Meta + W). This should work, since Chromium and Firefox (snap) allow to launch the Overview effect while in full-screen mode.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

  1. Install Chromium flatpak
  2. Open a website and switch to full screen (F11)
  3. Try to launch the overview effect (Meta+W); notice that it won't work
  4. Exit full screen (F11 again)
  5. Launch the overview effect; now it will work

OBSERVED RESULT With Chromium in full screen mode, the overview effect does not work.

EXPECTED RESULT The overview effect should work with Chromium in full-screen mode

FYI: This bug has already been reported at KDE bug tracker, but the developers informed that the bug needs to be fixed by the Flatpak maintainers.

We're definitely not changing this at all? Not sure why they guessed that, but there's zero code related to that in the Flatpak specifically. My understanding is that Chromium is actually intentionally inhibiting this?

In Edge (flatpak) the Overview effect works fine. Maybe there's something there that can help figure out why this does not work in Chromium?
