[Bug 504405] Re: Ctrl-Tab should jump to the next tab

[Jud Craft]

As an aside, yes, GNOME made their keyboard policy first.  But ctrl-tab
as a document-switching method has taken on much more ubiquity than
GNOME's human interface guidelines, and the conflict is unavoidable.

Especially since Ubuntu has at least two programs, then - and popular
they are - where tab-switching is inconsistent with the rest of the
Ubuntu desktop.  Leaving the inconsistency in place is just another
reminder of the incompleteness of the UI experience, but subtle enough
that people might overlook it.  That is, a paper-cut, per Ubuntu's
definition.

Ubuntu should expect the best of itself - and GNOME, to make a polished
interface that people can enjoy.
