            Bug ID: 492877
           Summary: When creating a new tab after not the last tab,
                    Konsole often mis-remembers the current directory
    Classification: Applications
           Product: konsole
           Version: master
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: tabbar
          Assignee: konsole-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: oded at geek.co.il
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
When creating a new tab, Konsole sets the current working directory in the new
tab to be the same as the tab that was active when the new tab was created.
This is great - except when it doesn't work, and in the current Neon unstable
build of Konsole this is sometimes wrong.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start Konsole, and navigate to directory A.
2. Create a new tab - it should start in directory A. Navigate to directory B.
3. Create a new tab - it should start in directory B. Close it.
4. Switch to the tab showing directory A.
5. Create a new tab.

OBSERVED RESULT
The latest tab's working directory is B.

EXPECTED RESULT
The latest tab's working directory should be A.

Qt Version: 6.7.2
Kernel Version: 6.8.0-41-generic (64-bit)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
It looks like Konsole misremembers what was the last active tab. A similar
problem can be observed when closing a tab - you'd expect Konsole to then
activate the tab to the left of the current tab, but sometimes it activates
some other tab which looks like a kind of LRU.
