DescriptionIt's not clear what triggered the change in behaviour, but currently when I click on a virtual desktop in the KDE/Plasma pager, KDE no longer switches to it (well, some of the time)
If I click about, it seems to send a window from the current desktop to that other window, or sometimes brings a window from that virtual desktop to the current one.
In order to switch between desktops I have to use the mouse's scroll wheel whilst hovering over the pager.
Occasionally, clicking on the pager behaves as it should and switches to that other desktop.
When the issue's present there just doesn't seem to be any consistency in the behaviour at all. Didn't find anything searching online for kde pager bug clicking moves window

With the advantage that all my work/windows are left open (unlike rebooting)

I wonder if there's some keyboard shortcut I've knocked to activate that functionality, although nothing shows in the pager settings

Glancing at the source, it is possible to drag windows between the desktops within the pager - https://github.com/KDE/plasma-desktop/blob/master/applets/pager/package/contents/ui/main.qml#L93 - doing that doesn't repro the behaviour though.
The existence of the functionality, though supports the theory that this "bug" is actually it getting stuck in a feature. Whatever the trigger/shortcut is, I can't seem to find it to repro.
It's not
- Dragging windows between the desktops in the pager
- Clicking the mouse wheel in the pager
- Clicking and scrolling the wheel in the pager
- Double clicking in the pager
- Dragging a window from the taskbar to another pager
:shrug: the main thing is now know how to kill the behaviour - restart plasmashell
