To my knowledge this option wasn't added in Plasma 6.3, and has been around for ages. Can you clarify which thing you're referring to? A screen recording of you enabling it and then reproducing the problem would be helpful.

the bug disappeared with the upgrade to kf 6.11.0
Feel free to close the bugreport.
