Version: (using KDE 4.2.96) Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages In 4.3 RC2, the order of task manager items changes when switching between virtual desktops. How to reproduce: 1) Switch task manager sorting to "manual". 2) Open two applications. 3) Change the order in the task manager by dragging one item to be in the other item's position; make sure the resulting order is _not_ alphabetically correct (from left to right, by the window titles). 4) Switch virtual desktop. 5) Switch back to original virtual desktop. -> The order of the task manager items has changed to an alphabetically correct ordering.
Confirmed.
I can confirm this too and iirc I had this since 4.1, (4.2 for sure). IMO this should be high priority.
