Alt-Tab behaviour

 

Hi,

The recent "Dodge Windows" user findings made me wonder about the
default Alt-Tab switching behaviour.  Since the switcher changed to
showing windows on all viewports I've found that the only way to make
it usable (read: predictable) is to set the "Bias alt-tab switching to
prefer windows on the current viewport" flag in CCSM.  I'm not running
Precise yet, so maybe that's the default behaviour already, but it
seems like another nice candidate to promote to a standard default.

I guess most new users wouldn't really experience many issues without
it, because I suspect they don't use multiple viewports, but for those
of us that rely on them it makes a big difference.

Thanks,
J.
