Bug Description
Binary package hint: compiz
I recently enabled compiz, "Visual Effects", on Hardy and now I cannot switch between panels with Ctrl-Alt-Tab. This used to work in metacity. Now it selects between all application windows instead. I looked at the key bindings in the compiz settings and the keyboard shortcuts in preferences, and neither of those locations have a control for this action. Therefore, there is currently _no_ way to focus on and select an applet without clicking on it. This is a usability issue as I shouldn't have to use the mouse (especially since this worked before, without compiz in Gutsy).

I can confirm this bug. However I think the real bug here is that the default keybindings of compiz overwrites a default keybinding in the gnome desktop.
Workaround: global_ keybindings/ switch_ panels
* open gconf-editor
* change the value of /apps/metacity/
