I agree.

Thinking about the emergency key. We already have Alt-Tab that may be
used to switch to any (non WindowListSkip) window. WindowList calls
WindowListFunc that currently contains this line among others:

  + I Iconify off

In case we will have FullScreen command, I think, we should also add:

  + I FullScreen off

to the default WindowListFunc. This will help users to bring their
windows to a normal state. Just an idea, nothing else.
