Description Stas 2016-09-19 15:58:47 UTC 
When I use the "sort manually" option in the task manager an I open new windows, the get sorted by the application. This leads to confusion as they should appear as last elements in the taskbar. I open a new window and expect it to be the last one and not to be moved somewhere in between already opened windows. At least not with the "sort manually" option enabled.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set task manager to sort the windows manually
2. Open a terminal
3. Open some other applications
4. Open a new terminal

Actual Results:  
The terminal which was opened in step 4. is placed beside the first terminal window.

Expected Results:  
The new terminal should be the last window in the taskbar.

I cannot reproduce this. I use "Sort manually" myself, and new windows always go last (unless they group).
Comment 2 Stas 2016-09-19 16:19:07 UTC 
Ok, I cannot reproduce it now, too. I have changed the settings multiple times (cannot reproduce now in which order) and now this behaviour is gone... Strange.
