Well, that is the behavior *I* expect. A better question might be: are
there any other good candidates for how to order alt+tab entries?
Imagine alt+tabbing from Thunderbird to Firefox. Now you want to alt+tab
back to Thunderbird. Would you not expect Thunderbird to be the first entry
in the alt+tab list? Would you not expect to only tab *once* to get back to
Thunderbird?
(okay these questions are not isomorf, but, why would one want to visually
enter the list somewhere in the middle of it, rather than from the left?)
