Have several Tabs open in the editor .) Press CTRL-TAB to open KeyboardpopupSwitcher. Keep holding CTRL for all the subsequent tasks .) Press (CTRL-)TAB several times so the cursor is somwhere in the middle of the open documents .) Left click mouse somewhere below the current selected document -> does not work .) Left click mouse somewhere above the current selected document -> works *) LEFT mouse click should work in both cases. *) Double click would be nice to work as "open document".
Ctrl+Tab was meant purely for keyboard handling, for mouse you have drop down list on right upper corner of the editor. However it's not bad idea to allow mouse handling too, so changing to enhancement.
No plans to work on this issue, leaving up to community to step in.
