Re: Live video of real user window switching + Interesting documentation info
(for faster access: window switching starts about 12:30 and seems to use Alt + Tab)
Seems to be a Alt + Tab Variation of the "how to distinguish/select windows by their smaller representation without windowtitles" bug:

Betreff: [Ayatana] Live video of real user window switching + Interesting
documentation info
> Hi All,
>
> I gave a lightning talk at the Flourish Open Source Conference this past
> weekend about how Gnome is using the documentation syntax Mallard for user
> help in Gnome 3. The talk was recorded by Carl Karsten, hero video recorder
> of PyCon and various Linux-y events. (We are lucky to have him in Chicago.)

> During my talk, I attempted to switch between windows with Unity, and had
> more than a few mis-steps (picking the wrong window, not being sure which
> window I was selecting to view, etc.). In practice, I've found the
> window-switching in gnome-shell to be much less "guessy." The talk is only
> about 5 minutes long (I went a bit over), and I thought the video might be
> helpful for those who are working on Unity.
