> A little rant: as someone who use three virtual keyboards (English, Chinese, Japanese), it is already a pain in ass to switch them since MS does not follow "last used" switching order (like alt+tab). Instead, it just switches in one direction.

Actually, I much prefer this order. Depending on what keyboard I currently use, I know exactly how often to switch instead of having to remember what I used previously. In fact, I don't even like this order when Alt+Tab'ing, it makes switching between more than two windows pretty inconsistent (yes, I know Windows+Number works, too).

Yeah, I get your point, it's indeed a trade off.

Having "last used" order makes quickly switch between two windows very easy, which is something I personally use more. It's easier than pressing alt+tab/shift+alt+tab alternately.

To switch to the third window, you can use alt+tab+tab.
