SUMMARY When presenting windows, one can select the window with the arrow keys, but it would be awesome to be able to do so using vim-like keys, as it is in krunner. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Activate present windows or overview effect. 2. Try navigating with Ctrl+(j, k, h or l). OBSERVED RESULT Nothing. EXPECTED RESULT Select the corresponding direction window.

I thought in general we don't implement the vim directional movements?
(In reply to fanzhuyifan from comment #1) > I thought in general we don't implement the vim directional movements? Well, it's implemented in KRunner, so I assumed it was not against the design code
I don't think in principle there's a rule against it. However since it has to be implemented in a bespoke manner for every single thing that currently uses the arrow keys for navigation, it's not exactly a high priority either. And in UIs that allow both typing text as well as directional navigation, the two conflict for vim-based shortcuts and so implementing them is less feasible or even infeasible.
