I agree that this isn't particularly useful, especially since you can switch
consoles by other means. I did find out, however, that you have to hold the
keystroke for a certain amount of time to cause the switch. If you hit
opt-tab quickly, usually MOL won't catch it. But that doesn't help when you
need to hold it to switch to a particular application. To facilitate this, I
changed the modifier key in my switcher program to CTRL.
