I think i've found out how to REPRODUCE THIS 100% SYSTEMATICALLY, and
it's not random:
- open several windows of an application
- press CTRL+ALT+D so that you show desktop
- click on the application icon on the launcher once => will restore and bring
to front one of the app's windows
- click on the launcher icon again => will exhibit the issue.
Consider this other situation which will also systematically reproduce
the issue and shows how annoying it is and how easy it is to stumble
with it unexpectedly in a way that is apparently random and nonsense:
- you have several windows of several applications open (more than one app with
more than one window each
- you click CTRL+ALT+DEL to show desktop
- then you restore some window
- then you restore some other window and so on, until you have a few open
windows and a few minimized ones, and you don't even remember that once upon a
time you did ctrl+alt+del
- then you click on a launcher icon
=> the arrows indicate there are N windows, but only M<N are shown as thumbs to
select among, as if the others didn't exist.
This is just one more oddity of the show-desktop thing with its
delirious fake-switch-between-two-states design.
