Alt-tabbing too rapidly can cause terminal to freeze

[Jacob Killelea]

Too frequent alt-tabbing between my text editor (Atom) and gnome-terminal can cause the terminal to freeze and not accept new keystrokes. The text editor does not freeze. The exact frequency of alt-tabbing that causes this has not been determined.
