I still don't think it is good. I have changed that for
the ttys to M-j and M-l (using the Emacs notation), and
set it up in X as well (by way of .xbindkeysrc) - check
it out:

TAB is good but your keys are bulky. TAB alone, M-TAB,
and S-TAB (backtab) are good.

What? I restrict my use to two windows because I have
very few lines and very few columns compared to modern
users (27 $LINES and 72 $COLUMNS). "Normal" people with
desktops with huge widescreens and minimal fonts
usually have like ten windows at the same time.

I don't know if it is a matter of giving freedom, but
the Emacs architecture with Lisp and all, the result is
what you indicate. Yes, all software should be like
that...
