The majority of that issue IIRC lies upon the Microsoft Window Manager, and if true, not much Discord can do about that.

Sure, but if Discord is processing and displaying something, Discord can change that behaviour when it's minimised.

Discord is choosing to display things and can tell if you have minimised it, they don't need Windows to make any changes.
