--- Comment #9 from zeta <franciscodezuvi...@gmail.com> ---
Some update on how this is going:

Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux 
KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.5
Qt Version: 5.11.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.54.0
Kernel Version: 4.19.0-2-amd64
OS Type: 64-bit

this is on Xorg.


I settled down to:

alt + tab (+shift for reverse) as the main switcher
(for windows in current activity)

alt + F22 (+shift for reverse) as the secondary switcher
(for windows in all activities)

Note that:
To use F22 I have remapped CapsLock (effectively disabling CapsLock) to F22
with this .Xmodmap file:

##############################
remove Lock = Caps_Lock
keycode 66 = F22
clear Lock
##############################

then enabling it with

xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap


RESULTS:

alt + tab mappings WORK. 
Also, while still pressing alt, I can hit ESC key to abort the switch

alt + F22 mappings WORK, mostly.
While still pressing alt, the ESC key does NOT abort the switch.
I have to click outside with the mouse to abort the switch


There is some hardcoding magic somewhere in the way alt/shift/tab/esc keys are
treated, which prevents this from working.

Note that this is not hardware related, because in both window switchers 1 and
2 (current activity and global) by the time I hit the ESC key, in both cases I
am only holding down the ALT key.

Best Regards
