As far as I can judge, the stacking order works just as you mentioned in
case of inter application cycling scenario, but not the same in intra
application cycling. I think the stacking order is not maintained within
the same application, thus cycling works always in a round robin fashion. I
am looking for stack ordering type mechanism here.
