I generally use Lat Lon Tools to go to a specific coordinate that I found
somewhere (online maps, Wikipedia etc.) - so latitude, longitude is
preferred. There are other use cases where X,Y is preferred, but I have
always found it easy to switch using settings or dropdown menu when needed.

Thanks for authoring and maintaining a great plugin!
