Closing the window of a multi-window app doesn't trigger context reevaluation #361

Setup: Linux + i3 (irrelevant?) + probably any app capable of opening multiple windows (tested with Anki, Firefox, Gimp, Libreoffice at least).

When I focus the app, a line in events.tail appears, e.g.:

main | win.focus app=firefox exe=/usr/lib/firefox/firefox title='New Issue · talonvoice/talon — Mozilla Firefox'

Opening a new window (i.e. Ctrl+N in Firefox for me) produces another line:

main | win.focus app=firefox exe=/usr/lib/firefox/firefox title='Mozilla Firefox'

But closing it does nothing, even though I'd expect the first line to repeat. And experiments suggest the context reevaluation indeed doesn't get triggered.

I noticed (and discarded) this about a month ago (my TODO list says 2021-06-21); before that, it worked fine, so the regression may have been introduced some time around that point.
