All window managers I have tested so far (except Gnome Shell) agree on the
following:

they send a 'VisibilityNotify event' when you select back the previously
iconified window.

Gnome Shell do not send such an event even when users choose 'Gnome
Classic', which uses a panel that displays the iconified apps.

[Design decision or Gnome bug? I haven't searched that much about this,
but I think gnome Shell should send that event as everyone else: this
migth affect other APPS, not only Emacs]

Here is the comparison between window managers.
for easier navigations, I recommend to copy the
following lines and display it inside Emacs in a org mode buffer:
