Description Markus 2012-01-18 15:59:17 UTC 
It would be nice to use the tab key for switching between "windows" and "applications" in the overview!
It would also be nice to navigate through the elements within those views using the arrow keys.

This already has a keybinding which is consistent with GTK+ tabs: Ctrl+Pg[Up/Down].

Besides, the plan is to get rid of these 2 "tabs" in the overview. See http://jimmac.musichall.cz/log/?p=1181 .

That's bug 663901.
