screen recording of view key bug

SUMMARY

When sending a pair request from phone to desktop, the "view key" button doesn't display the key.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Send a pair request from phone to desktop.
2. Click "view key".

OBSERVED RESULT

If it is not already loaded, the KDE Connect settings window will launch. You will be taken to a device page. In my tests I get taken to the wrong device page 100% of the time. In the screen recording, the device sending the pair request is "Moto X4".

Also, even if this were the intended method for viewing a key (unclear), it is also useless, because once you click "view key" there is no way to accept the pair request any more. Even if I click on the correct device tab, the only option is to request pairing. Clicking this appears to not do anything at all, because the other device is *already* in the pair request mode...

EXPECTED RESULT

I should see a screen that displays the key of the device, and has an option to accept or reject pairing.
