In version 3.5, window handling in SDI mode was working as expected due to the fact that every different kind of window had its own large icon in the native window manager, e.g. [Alt+Tab] under MS Windows. In 3.6, all windows have the same icon which is meaningless. One might argue that [Ctrl+~] provides the same functionality, but the icons are too small and back-tabbing is not possible. Please do not reduce the functionality of the native window manager without providing at least the same functionality. Following Marian Mirilovic's advice in issue 39460.
