Hi Scott,

I agree that being unaware of open windows is a drag because a sighted user 
sees it instantly and can close it just as quickly. The idea of being able to 
tab between windows is very much a Windows concept and I don't think Apple will 
follow suit. For me, I've gotten used to checking windows after booting up and 
I've just made it part of my workflow at the studio. I feel that the missing 
functionality of modified clicks in VoiceOver is a bigger issue and I'm not 
sure when Apple will finally figure that one out. Oh, well…

Cheers,

Slau
