Hello! Currently, minimized windows on bspwm don't really work great with bars that provide task managers (task lists) like tint2, KDE/Xfce panel widgets etc.
Tasklists usually allow you to click on a task to minimize or focus & unminimize a window. On bspwm it works differently: window is focused only if it's not hidden and you get switched to the window's desktop (even if it's hidden).
The patch adds the conventional behavior described above. As a side effect, it also makes focused windows automatically unhide (so now they can also be unhidden with rofi etc.) but other than that it shouldn't introduce any changes for people who don't use task managers.
Edit: I doubt it's going to get merged, e.g. i3 actually reverted the commit that added handling of WM_CHANGE_STATE. (or maybe my patch is just bad idk, i'm not experiencing any issues.) If you want this, you can just apply the patch manually.
