            Bug ID: 488141
           Summary: Plasma Desktop Task Switcher Has Unexpected Behavior
                    when Filter is set to Minimised Windows
    Classification: I don't know
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: NixOS

SUMMARY
When the task switcher is filtered to only go between minimised windows, it
will go to the "next" minimised window despite the previous minimised window
never having been activated. This is unintuitive since if your sort order is
set to recently used you would expect it to summon the most recently minimised
window. 

I assume this behavior is due to filtering for minimised windows only making
your most recently minimised window the "active" window to switch FROM instead
of TO.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set main or alternative Task Switcher to Filter windows by Minimization >
Hidden windows, so your task switcher becomes a way to easily unminimise a
specific minimised window using keyboard shortcuts.
2. Set Sort order in your Task Switcher to Recently Used
3. Minimise at least 2 windows
4. Use Task Switcher keyboard shortcut exactly once

OBSERVED RESULT
The second most recently minimised window will unminimise

EXPECTED RESULT
The most recently minimised window unminimises.
