Description Alex 2019-04-22 12:11:02 UTC 
SUMMARY
Please add most recent used (MRU) behavior to the "Cycle through tasks" option because it is more convenient and productive to cycle tasks in MRU order other than in the order windows were opened. You can also add "Cycle through tasks MRU" as an addition to the existing "Cycle through tasks" option.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In the settings assign to CTRL + MOUSE LEFT CLICK value "Cycle through tasks"
2. Open several different dolphin windows for example
3. Use CTRL + MOUSE LEFT CLICK to cycle through windows

OBSERVED RESULT
Windows are shown in the order they were opened

EXPECTED RESULT
Windows should be shown in the most recent used order

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 5.12.7
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.12.7

Qt Version: 5.9.5

The cycle through tasks remembers the last one used and from it it starts to cycle based on their creation... 

If you can provide any better feel free to submit for review...

The justification is that's how it works on Windows 10. I find it more reasonable to cycle through most recent order than the order of creation. How can I submit it for review?

P.S. You can leave the existing "Cycle through tasks" option and add "Cycle through tasks MRU" for those like me ))
