Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I have multiple windows over multiple screens, and I want to focus from a window on one screen, to one on another.

Describe the solution you'd like
I'd like the 'Move focus' functionality to work between screens, as it would work on a tiling WM. Currently I can only switch focus on windows on the same screen. If I want to focus a window on another screen, I gotta alt+tab and cycle to a window on that screen.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Alt+tab works, as described.

This is already built into kwin. Search for "screen" in system-setting under keyboard->shortcuts->kwin.

The one you are most likely to be interested in are "Switch to screen to the {left/right}" and "Move windows one screen to the {left/right}".

I have the same problem. When switching focus from one app to another, it stops at current focus screen reach. It does not cross to a second screen.
