screen cast showing the issue

I use the mouse to switch between applications and it seems that I keep the
mouse pressed while switching to the new application.

This action results in a drag & drop operation of the current (or the previous)
application's desktop file to the switched to application.

I could see how this could work if I drag an application to the desktop and
have a link to it.

But normally I don't want to open a desktop file with Kate, KMail, or to
download it with Chromium.

In the attached screen cast I switch fast between applications in order to
reproduce this issue. 

In normal usage this happens a few times in a working day. Very annoying. I
feel like KDE Plasma slows me down :)

This shouldn't happen. I would like the task switcher to behave like the
"normal " Windows 7, Windows 10 task switcher. Just switch the task, nothing
more.
