Public bug reported:

as i said the alt-tab window switcher does not work if the current
window is a fullscreen one,basically the fullscreen game stops taking
input after initiating the alt-tab sequence and neither do we see a
window switcher this is especially critical as now steam games are
starting to arrive on ubuntu and gamers expect alt-tab to work even if
games are fullscreen since they come from a windows background. also
gamers press alt-tab fairly frequently when they can't figure out what
to do next in a quest to search it on web.
