Summary

Situation:

Workspace with 2 windows.
Maximized one of the windows; this window has focus.
A pop-up appears, e.g. from Teams or from the app itself.
Clicking on the popup (e.g. to close it).

bug: the last action causes the focused window to get de-maximised, i.e., the other window on the workspace is shown next to the window that has focus.

Windows does not emit an event when a user clicks the maximize button. Komorebi only supports maintaining state when a window is maximized using the toggle-maximize command.
