I have come to like Unity but sometimes I need to switch between windows of an application, or to switch to a particular window of an application. Currently to do that I need to go either through the spread (expose-like effect which shows all open windows for an application) or through alt-tab which works fine, but it would be great to be able to switch between windows more rapidly.
To demonstrate, I wrote a patch which adds a list of currently open windows for an application to the menu which appears when an application icon in the menu is right-clicked.
Patch attached - the patch is against Unity in 12.04 LTS.

I have also made a video to show this in action: http:// killem. al/windowlist. ogv
