Title:
  Alt-tab - When alt-tab is open, the user should be able to left click
  with the pointer on a specific app/window in order to select it

Status in Ayatana Design:
  Fix Committed
Status in Unity:
  Fix Committed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  1. Open up several apps (for instance, a web browser, a game, a file manager 
and a terminal). Don't have the apps maximized.
  2. Press Alt+Tab. Hold down the Alt key and click the tab selector so that 
the game is active.
  3. While continuing to hold down Alt, use your mouse to click the terminal 
tile
  Expected behavior: Unity should switch to the terminal since the mouse click 
overrides where the tab happened to end up.

  Alternate example:
  3. While continuing to hold down Alt, change your mind and click to the 
actual file manager in the background.
  Expected behavior: Unity should switch to the file manager since the mouse 
click overrides the Alt+Tab behavior.

  Other notes:
  Gnome Shell works the way I expect; it would be nice for Unity to do the 
Right Thing also.

  User testing notes: 
  In user testing we found that several users tried to use the pointer to 
select applications/windows when alt-tab was open.

  ----------------------------------
  Desired solution:

  - The requested change is to enable the use of the pointer and left click to 
select a specific app/window. Left clicking on a app/window should close the 
alt-tab and bring the selected item into focus.
  - Additionally the mouse scroll wheel should be active and allow the user to 
change focus in either direction
