ALT-TAB is broken if you use focus follows mouse. This is a bug.

Focus follows mouse is a much more powerful way to manage and use
windows. The fact that the default is click-to-focus so that most people
don't know how much better that focus follows mouse is explains why not
everyone is highly annoyed by this. I guess lots of those click-to-focus
people are also happy to, well, click to focus rather than using ALT-
TAB.

Tim, is it possible for you to set up a PPA or otherwise make your
patches available?

The ring-switcher thing is highly annoying, though it does solve the
problem.

Does KDE have this problem?
