Bug Description
Pressing Alt+ "the right arrow key" will trigger the window switcher.
This is probably not intended, because:
- Other arrows don't trigger it
- This shortcut is used by other applications (eg. by Firefox to go forward)
- When it was triggered, releasing all keys does not quit the switcher (unlike Alt+Tab). You have to press Esc or Enter.
I have this problem on both Oneiric and Precise (up to date). I tried with 2 different laptops.

Reassigning to Unity, because I just realized it implements it's own Alt-tab (this bug happen only on Unity and no window switcher plugin is enable in CCSM)
