Thanks. Yes, I too use super+w all the time. I prefer that kind
of overview to the alt+tab thing. I don't want to flip through
windows. I know exactly which one I want, so I want it right
away.

And adding keyboard shortcuts when they aren't in use,
doesn't interfere with users expectations as long as pressing
alt clearly shows numbers on top of each windows. I think that's
quite deductive when used with super with the launcher.
