Alt+section does not work as expected

[Eddie Dunn]

Reproduce:
Open two e.g. two Firefox windows. Use alt+section (key above tab, § on my Swedish keyboard layout, ` on US layouts) to switch between the two different windows.

What happens:
A graphical window switcher is shown, with an orange glow around the window not currently focused. You release alt+section, since the orange halo leads you to beleive the window you want to switch to is selected. This is false -- you are instead taken back to the window you had focused when pressing alt+section.

If I hold alt and press section again, the orange glow will move to the right _together with the window it was highlighting_. After doing this, window selection graphics work "properly". This means I have to double tap section in order to switch windows within an application.

Also, if I type alt+section really, really fast, the switcher window does not appear, and then the window switching works as expected.

Expected behavior:
1. Alt+section should highlight the window that will actually be selected.
2. I should not need to hold alt and double tap section to change to the next window within an application. One section key press should be enough.

Thank you for reporting this bug to make Ubuntu. However this is a duplicate of bug 1035628. You will be glad to hear that that this has been fixed. It is currently in Precise-Proposed updates. It should land as an update to all Ubuntu 12.04 users in the next few days.

I don't believe it's a duplicate of bug 1035628 -- I have no problem with losing focus when using alt+tab/alt+section.

However, it IS a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/+source/unity/+bug/1035668.
