This is not a proper answer, but I have managed to reproduce it so hopefully it may be possible to avoid this situation :)

To reproduce:

1. In the multitasking view, longpress to show the close buttons of the active applications
2. While the multitasking view is still in "close mode", open the event view with a swipe from the bottom
3. Dismiss the event view

EDIT: Ok, I've managed to fix it. This is obviosuly unsupported by Jolla and may eat your favourite pet. But it works here. YMMV.

1. Open /usr/share/lipstick-jolla-home-qt5/main.qml with your favourite text editor

2. Line 88, inside the Connections object:

   onEventsPeekChanged: if (Lipstick.compositor.eventsPeek) desktop.closeApplicationEnabled = false
   

   Change to:

   onEventPeekChanged: if (Lipstick.compositor.eventPeek) desktop.closeApplicationEnabled = false
   

3. Restart lipstick and enjoy

4. (Probably the same should be done in the onCloseApplicationEnabledChanged callback, but anyway this change fixed the bug for me, so... :) )

If there's enough interest I could create a patch incorporating this change.
