Hello Andreas,

you know Alt+Tab to cycle through all running applications?

Alt+Tab has the nice property that it manages the open windows in a stack like
fashion ordered by the most recently accessed windows. In the simplest case
when pressing Alt+Tab once at a time this means toggling between the both most
recently used applications.

The trick is to put the selected window on top of that stack in the moment when
the Alt key is released.

OK, thats the function of Alt+Tab. "Last Accessed Window" was the same for all
open documents in KDevelop. Windows users often know the keyboard shortcut
Ctrl+Tab for this functionality in MDI applications, so it would be great if
one could assign that instead of the default.

By the way: The reverse function "First Accessed Window" correspondingly uses
the stack of open documents from the bottom. The common shortcut for that is
Ctrl+Shift+Tab (like Alt+Shift+Tab for applications).

To be precise, you could even change the direction of browsing through the
stack on the fly by keeping Alt pressed and additionally pressing or releasing
Shift.

I hope my description is not too confusing. ;-)

Best regards
Tranquillity
