Public bug reported:

Chromium uses unity_inspector_get_unity_running to determine if close/minimize/maximize buttons are hidden when in a maximized state.
https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/chrome/browser/ui/libgtkui/unity_service.cc?rcl=0ddb4374a9221dba28e9ea8a1edaacb32dcc0861&l=124

libunity checks if the com.canonical.Unity Dbus service is created and
uses that as the return value for unity_inspector_get_unity_running.
(see src/unity-inspector.vala)

KDE Plasma 5.6 supports the unity launcher API and creates a
com.canonical.Unity service.  Even though unity is certainly not
running, UnityInspector thinks it is.
