... so please try again with:

Then evaluate

  (setq frame-size-history '(100))

switch to the other virtual desktop, switch back to the Emacs
desktop, evaluate

  (frame--size-history)
  (pop-to-buffer "*frame-size-history*")

and tell me what *frame-size-history* contains now.

Silly me again: I meant "what Emacs thinks in what state FRAME is"
namely, not visible (nil), iconified (icon), or visible (t).

I meanwhile got around installing Enlightenment here and note that I
cannot deiconify a frame via

(iconify-frame frame)
(make-frame-visible frame)

The frame stays iconified.  Can you confirm?  I see the same behavior
with GNOME shell - so maybe this is expected and was so ever since.
