Maybe what I am about to say will doom this potential idea forever,
but isn't that similar to what microsoft DOS window in windows does?
Alt-Tab?
I like that functionality in windows, it enables me to switch between
multiple applications fairly easily, providing focus (and
deiconifying if necessary).
Would you just change the focus? or would you also do warping? What
about iconification? It is probably worth while giving it a try.
(of course, its not my time I'm talking about spending :-)
