Thats the problem though, key placement: On a UK English keyboard ~ is
the shift option on the key beside the return key on the complete
opposite side from the tab key and alt-~ would just be awkward to use.
Would it be possible to do some sort of time delay: alt-tab through the
applications, pausing over application for x seconds while still holding
alt would switch to the windows of that application and then alt-tab
would cycle through them?
