I understand that. The reason that I think this is a good exception is that the Alt-Tab shortcut is rather extra anyway. it's the same thing as mod-j. So, to me it looks like the mod-Tab is just backwards-compatibility for a shortcut most WMs have. So, I think maintaining this compatibility even when the user changes the default mod is desirable. I don't think this particular binding would really conflict with much, alt-tab is quite standard. Thanks, Michael Sloan On 7/24/07, Spencer Janssen wrote:

We're trying to keep all the keybindings under one modkey -- this allows the user to relegate xmonad to an unused modifier in one simple step.
