Context

I found #9981 but the problem there seems to have been different. This really isn't that big of a deal for me since I'm just using howdy for face unlock but if I had to enter my password every time having to fiddle with the windows would get a little annoying I'd imagine.

KeePassXC - Version 2.8.0-snapshot Revision: c1a66a8

Operating System: Linux Desktop Env: KDE Windowing System: Wayland

I believe this is because on Linux we make the unlock dialog "Always on Top" to avoid issues with various desktop environments not letting us raise the window.

Oh, you are right. I somehow didn't notice that, sorry. In this case it's probably not even a bug... I also only just realized that the Polkit window is focused on, it's just not getting brought to the front visually, obviously.

Different circumstances, same bug. See also https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=312325#c39
