Some additional observations regarding this bug:
- It seems that after minimizing and restoring such a problematic application
once, it actually has two windows: The normal one and an additional one with
the same icon, size about 50x50 or 100x100 pixels, filled with garbage. When I
use Alt-Tab I see both of them. Since I switched to KDE4, the main window is
not always completely lost after minimizing, restoring and minimizing it again,
by clicking the taskbar entry several times I sometimes get it back. Sometimes
I also just get the small second window.
- "Restoring" the application using a fullscreen 3D application does not work
any longer with KDE4
- The 3d cover-flow-like alt-tab switcher if KDE4 sometimes completely crashes
when switching to the strange second small window
- I am not sure, but it could be that the common factor of all the applications
is that they were built with Borland (Delphi or C++). I knows for sure that
"Welt am Draht" is a Borland-application, I could try finding out about
PlasmaShop and PRPTool.

My conclusion is that something the windows app does makes wine create a second
window and tell the window manager strange things, which in turn leads to the
weird effects I try to describe.
