[Bug 1223039] [NEW] [Switcher] Mouse cannot regain selection control of icon after the user press alt+tab

 

Public bug reported:

To reproduce:

1) Open a few different applications (or 2, for example: gnome-terminal, gedit, gnome-calculator)
2) Press Alt+Tab to open the switcher.
3) Mouse over an icon (make sure the mouse doesn't start over an icon at first).
* Note the icon under the mouse must have selection at this point *
4) Press Alt+Tab to move the selection down one.

Expected:
  Moving the mouse outside the icon it's hovering over; then re-entering the icon should regain selection.

Results:
  You cannot regain selection control until your mouse moves over a different icon.
