           Summary: Present Window Effect Should Always Activate
           Product: plasmashell

SUMMARY
In our current version, if System Settings has the Present Windows effect
enabled by using a screen corner, the effect works on all windows except when
there is only one window.

When there is only one window in the desktop, present windows does not
activate.

I feel this behavior should change. There should be an activation even though
there is only 1 window on the desktop and even though there are no windows on
the desktop.

The reason being because by not activating the effect, we break the
predictability of the effect. A user may want to activate it to just see if
there are any windows in any screen that are selectable. In large screen
arrays, this may be necessary.

At the same time, even if there are no windows on the desktop, the activation
should still happen. The background should still turn darker and probably show
a message saying "No windows present". That way the user confirms that there
are no windows anywhere to present.
