-10 to the "all in one window" idea.

I want each project in it's own window.  I want to be able to view both
projects at the same time (in different windows).  I want it to be just like
starting up another instance of IDEA.  I want to be able to easily Alt-Tab
between them.  With this approach, you don't have any of the complications
like the Ctrl-Alt-Left/Right issue described (should it bounce across
projects or not?).  And you don't need yet another (increasingly arbitrary
and hard-to-remember) key combination to switch between projects.

It's much simpler if each project is in its own frame.  There's never a
"confusion" about which project you're in, and if you have multiple
monitors, you can have one project in each.  You can easily have two
debugging sessions going.  There's no major paradigm shift required, or any
major UI over-haul needed to cope with multiple projects.

Just my two cents.

I prefer one window with simple way to switch between
the projects (something like ALT-F1 does).

Another question is:
- if a user switched between projects, should then
  Ctrl-Alt-LEFT (and RIGHT) go to the file in
  previous project? In other words, the "edited location
  history" should be per project or global?

I prefer global one. But let's hear from others...
