Sounds good, but why not add something for a key / mouse binder for
blackbox?  Ie, you'll have an event called "show all windows" or
something, which you could bind to a mouse button, or keyboard shortcut?

Ie, just push the middle mouse button and get a list of all windows
opened, or, if you're feeling lazy, just type ctrl-esc, (or whatever
your shortcut key to bring up the window list is), and use then use the
arrow keys (or a quicksearch with the keyboard - hint hint), to move to
the window you want.
