Bug Description

My oneiric netbook is being "liberated" by my lawyer fiancé more often. She even called
me during UDS for a support call. The reason according to her was "alt-tab doesn't work".
I didn't quite get what she meant, libreoffice was in use and she had multiple docs open. After
I got home I saw the problem, alt-tab is discoverable and she would have had to pause over the
libreoffice instance while in alt-tab for the task switcher to explode the windows under that
instance.

In recreating the problem, I now notice the little arrows in the icon representing how
many windows are open, so I can teach her that. I'll let you guys wrestle over the
details of improving the UI experience. Thanks.
