A radial wheel is so much faster than alt-tabbing through windows, definitely stealing this idea. One thing that would seal it for me: let me assign different palettes to different hotkeys so I can keep dev tools, writing apps, and music stuff completely separate without them all muddying the same wheel.
the radial wheel feels really natural on a mac, like muscle memory kind of kicks in fast. honestly impressed how snappy it is once you hold the key down.
