Alt+Tab switcher treats multiple windows of every application as a single icon making it impossible to switch between them

[Guruprasad]

Alt+Tab switcher treats multiple windows of every application as a single item thereby making it impossible to switch between windows of an application. This is an important use-case because Alt+Tab should switch between the open windows. If it is intended only for switching between application, then there must be alternatives provided for switching between open windows.

we also have alt+` key to switch between windows of the same app not sure what will be done so that people know what this key combination does

(This will probably end up needing to be marked "Won't Fix" or "Opinion", since at the moment, the switching-by-application-group is by-design).
