Bug Description

Performing AutoType closes the main keepassx 0.4.3 window (but leaves the icon behind) making keepassx unusable after the first auto-type. Attempting to switch to the window closes the icon.

I've included a patch below for lib/AutoTypeX11.cpp that resolves the problem for me, but please take in to account that I haven't tested this on any other platform, I'm not a c++ programmer, and I haven't touched X11 code for about 20 years!

< /* Replace mainWin->hide(); with mainWin-showMinimized()

< the program inaccessible. */
< mainWin->showMinimized();
---
> mainWin->hide();

Thanks,
Alistair
