I was actually thinking about something similar to this last week. <alt>+<tab> should continue to have its normal behavior (each press of <tab> goes to the next window). <left arrow> and <right arrow> would navigate to the next item in the current level. Eg. switching between windows in a given workspace, tabs in a given window, or different workspaces. <up arrow> and <down arrow> will change levels to drill down into a windows tabs or move up to show windows in a different workspace. Thus far we have not used any of the keys needed for regular text entry. I propose that any alphanumeric text entered automatically be used for search, narrowing down the window/tab list. To make this nice for the user we need to find a way to make <alt>+<tab> sticky. It shouldn't default to being sticky because that will mess with the default behavior in rather unpleasant ways. There should be some simple one-handed way to make <alt>+<tab> stay up without the user holding <alt>. What do you guys think would be a good way of toggling between sticky and non-sticky mode? |
