User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:91.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/91.0

Steps to reproduce:

Set a calendar entry with a reminder in Thunderbird for my GMX account. Wait for the reminder period to occur.

Actual results:

Thunderbird initiates the reminder dialog IN THE FOREGROUND CONSISTENTLY and REPETITIVELY.

Expected results:

I would like to be able to specify an option for Thunderbird's calendar reminders dialog to start in a minimized state. The preference should be a global preference.

My one reminder only initiates once.

Version: 78 → Trunk

The reminder dialog does initiate only once. However, periodically, the dialog "refreshes" and steals focus. When the dialog "refreshes" (either for a new reminder or a "refresh" of an already displayed reminder) it should not steal focus.
