Previously, the "Minimize Window at Application Startup" option allowed/required the user to unlock the database before minimizing the window. This (understandably) annoyed users who wanted the exact behaviour described by the option ("minimize on startup"), but was a useful feature for others (see use case below). (see #105, #155, #1147)
The behaviour was changed in 19a9608. So far it seems there was only discussion about reverting the behaviour of this option.
I would like to suggest adding a separate option, which would allow us to accommodate both user groups.
Desired Behavior
When "minimize after unlocking" is enabled, launch KeePassXC with its window visible, allow the user to unlock the database, then minimise to systray.
Possible Solution
The code for this already existed until it was removed in 19a9608, so it could probably be adapted to work with the current codebase.
Context
I primarily use KeePassXC through the KeePassXC-Browser extension.
When the database is locked, the browser extension becomes completely non-functional; it does not seem to be able to open an unlock window.
My usual workflow is to launch KeePassXC, unlock the database, minimise it (which I currently have to do manually), then launch my browser. The "minimize after unlock" option would remove that extra step, which would be a very useful feature.
