This is highly irritating.
Steps to repro:
1. Have 2 firefox windows open, and 1 terminal. Firefox window 1 is focused.
2. Hit Alt-` to switch to Firefox window 2
3. Hit Alt-Tab.
Expected result
Terminal is in front
Actual Result
Firefox window 1 in front
Since Alt-Tab is the app switcher, and Alt-backtick is in-app window
switching, this behaviour is totally wrong. I'm re-opening this bug.

Title:

open pressing alt-tab will start from the same app.

Bug description:
Normally, when you press alt-tab, you will be switched to app you've
used last before current app (so you can switch between two apps with
pressing alt-tab just once).
When using option "Bias alt-tab to prefer windows on the current
viewport", if multi-window app is open pressing alt-tab will start
from the same app. So to switch to another app you need to press "alt-
tab-tab". That's really annoying.
Please fix that.
