Description Elijah Newren 2006-06-06 21:29:08 UTC 
As noted in bug 338660 comment 6, the contrast between the behavior of alt-tab and alt-esc used to be more pronounced.  But now, there's not so much difference -- the only real difference is that Alt-Tab is more intuitive (gives more of a sense of direct manipulation by showing the window to the user instead of hilighting it).  It would seem that the current Alt-tab behavior ought to only be used when reduced-resources is true.

Of course, then there's the question of whether we keep Alt-Esc around... :)
