Hmm. I'm not sure if I understand what you're saying here, but a
possible solution would be an enhancement I was planning on doing
anyway.... Yes, I do plan on making the popup menu a config option.
With or without it, though, I think that while in the midst of a
stackCycling cycle (umm, yeah, when you're in the middle of cycling
through windows on the desktop with the stackedCycling method), it would
be a nice feature to setfocus on each given window as the user cycles
through the list. That way, you can see which window you would actually
raise to the top if you stopped cycling at that point. This way, the
user would have two visual clues as he was cycling and he had the menu
turned on (as I will), and if the menu isn't visible, it would setfocus
on each window it cycled through until the cycle stopped, then raise
that window to the top.
Does this make sense? What are y'all's </texan> thoughts on this?
