Hi Dragutin,
many thanks for your doublecheck! And please excuse the delay, I was on vacation.

I have performed your test (the exact same steps) using a catalog - and now RMAN restores file 3 ( the one not in the autobackup controlfile any more) but the restore fails with ORA-19653: cannot switch to older file incarnation

So I don't get something that "wasn't in the database at any point in time" now, but restore fails....

Or did you imply different steps to be executed/additional information to be extracted from the catalog?

Best greetings
Sigrid
