Regarding the comments there (not sure if I should respond here or there):
I didn't propose changing the Documents sidebar at all (I like its current
behavior of opening any file you click in the focused split), only the Ctrl+Tab
behavior.
VSCode has tabs, and Ctrl+Tab works like I proposed (separate orders, and only
showing the tabs in the current split view).
Qt Creator doesn't have a concept of which files are open in a given split
view, but the Ctrl+Tab order is per-split there too. Visiting a file in one
split doesn't bring it forward in the Ctrl+Tab order of another split.
KDevelop, OTOH, works like Kate currently; there, the equivalent of my proposal
is a confirmed request since 2013: Bug 323218.
Eclipse seems to behave rather differently, such that views can be arranged in
many ways, and it seems to have a single Ctrl+Tab order, but it will switch to
a different (split) view if necessary, rather than open a file in the current
view.
In LyX (not a plain text editor, but also has tabs and splits), Ctrl+Tab
switches in the order tabs are on the tab bar, per-split, rather than in the
order they have been last used. (Kate has different shortcuts for this by
default.)
However, I was wrong that the current Kate Ctrl+Tab behavior started last year:
I built 21.12 and it also worked like this. I guess I thought it started with
22.04 because the most noticeable effect—Ctrl+Tab reopening a tab I just closed
with Ctrl+W—didn't happen until then because closing a tab closed it
everywhere.
