Bug Description

This is what my task switcher looks like when I hit alt+tab a few times.

Which app do you think is going to open?

I *thought* it would be the one on the extreme right. Perhaps the one in the centre?

It appears to always be the 2nd one from the left!

Except when I've tabbed to the end - then it *is* the last one. Until I tab round everything - then it's the 1st from the left.

I'm confused - and this makes me feel stupid. In every other version of Ubuntu I've used, the centre/foremost window is the one which will be opened. On this tablet, I feel like I'll never know which will open.

OTA 10.1 BQ Aquaris tablet.

There's an almost invisible grey border around the selected window. Not an ideal solution.
