Public bug reported:

It's possible to rebind or disable Unity's Alt-Tab key (through CCSM or
gconf-editor), but its Alt-Grave key is hard-coded.

This makes it impossible to use said key with compiz's other window
switchers (unless you completely abandon unity shell).

I thought I must just be missing wherever the option lives so I read the
source and was surprised to see it getting hard-coded to whatever key is
above "Tab".  Seems a rather odd choice, since all the other keys get
handled the usual way as configurable options.
