            Bug ID: 435764
           Summary: Suoer+number shortcuts for pinned tasks get shifted by
                    new pinned task windows
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: 5.21.4
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Task Manager and Icons-Only Task Manager
          Assignee: h...@kde.org

  Target Milestone: 1.0

SUMMARY
I use Super+numbers as a time-saving keyboard shortcut to switch among pinned
applications[1]. I've developed the muscle memory that "Super + 1 = browser",
"2 = IDE" etc.

The problem is that when an application creates a new window (e.g. the
browser), that shifts all subsequent keyboard assignments by one. Thus Super+2
will no longer activate my IDE, and I'd have to press Super+3 for that.

I think there should be an option to "pin" these shortcuts as well, since the
applications are pinned; in other words, to force grouping windows of the same
(pinned) program. I only see under More Actions "allow this program to be
grouped" (which BTW has a slightly misleading name, "program" vs. "window").


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Pin Firefox to the Task Manager. Verify that Super+1 will bring it into
focus.
2. Pin Konsole and verify that Super+2 switches to it.
3. Open a new Firefox window.
3. Press Super+2

OBSERVED RESULT
The second Firefox window becomes active.


EXPECTED RESULT
Konsole becomes active, as before creating the second Firefox window.
