Shrink to a floating button instead of hiding

With "Shrink to Button" on, the dismiss key shrinks the window to just itself: a see-through button that can be dragged anywhere. Tapping it grows the keyboard back around it, kept on screen. KWin moves and resizes the window through a one-off script, as Wayland clients can't place themselves. Also moves the window back on screen whenever it appears (KWin remembers where the button was), and releases the mouse after a window manager move or resize, which used to eat the next press on the grab bar.
