xdg-activation with no input serial flashes the taskbar icon on KDE like on Windows when this API is called. On other compositors it may display a notification of some sort, but the window will not be brought to the top (activated) without an input serial. SDL uses a similar strategy to implement its FlashWindow equivalent. https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/merge_requests/9#... In that case it should be made more obvious (and tbh I think supporting ActivateWindow is much more useful than FlashWindow), because `wayland_surface_activate` seems to indicate an actual activation request.
