That's okay so far but, as you see, it can lead to confusion. I've
just added another (lengthy) note to issue 19666, that explains what I
consider *desired* behaviour instead:
The Clone menu should allow to simply *activate* an already existing
*or* newly created clone. Currently it can be very time consuming to
scroll through the tabs of the target window, shifting one by one,
until an already existing clone is found there.
I already suggested an pagewise scroll through the tabs, instead of
shifting one by one, but this idea was rejected a long time ago...
BTW, you are away of the "page locking" feature ?

Assign it to a key-shortcut.
Then lock the current editor, and to a declaration jump. With the
default settings, this should go to the file in the
last-focused-editor-for-that-file (can be changed to
Editor-for-that-file-in-the-most-recent-focused-window)
That is, if the jump target is not already visible in the window...
