Thanks for your responses, anyway I (and my boss) are interested in the
normal functionality of Alt+tab but using instead Mod4+tab.

I tried it with byidx(-1):

   awful.key({ modkey,           }, "Tab",
        function ()
            awful.client.focus.history.byidx(-1)
            if client.focus then
                client.focus:raise()
            end
        end),

but it's not working..
