The answer is that its complicated. You need to switch not only the View, but the entity that the system considers to be active. As Dianne suggests android.app.LocalActivityManager is where I'd start, http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=blob;f=core/java/android/app/LocalActivityManager.java . A lot of the heavy lifting is done here, but there's also android.widget.TabHost and android.app.ActivityGroup (which TabHost extends), and android.app.ActivityThread.
