At some point the alt-tab application switcher seems to have gained support for mouse hover. This means if you have the mouse in the middle of the screen and then bump it while doing an alt-tab you can easily select the wrong application.
To reproduce:
1. hold alt down
2. press tab
3. Move mouse to the left of the switcher on the edge of an application icon
4. Press tab a few times
5. Move the mouse a little bit across between two icons
Expected result:
The selected icon doesn't change
Observed result:
The icon under the mouse is selected
This is particularly bad when the icons concertina under the mouse. Then basically any mouse movement will un-concertina them and select the wrong icon.
