I believe this is partially a byproduct of ingrained UI expectations BUT there
is still a bug in sequential order switching.

Sort order = Recently used:
'Default' Alt-tab (forward switch) uses 'recently used' order when set to
'Recently used' sort order in settings UI.
'Default' Alt-shift-tab (reverse switch) uses reverse stacking order when set
to 'Recently used' sort order in UI. 

While confusing at face value, this is a byproduct of simple UI expectations,
and possibly not a bug. 'Recently used' and 'Stacking order' are possibly
expected to be simply inverted. The power-user workaround would then be to have
both sort rules simultaneously active in 'Main' and 'Alternative', and to split
the keybindings across these tabs.

However, this approach fails!
1. The reverse sequential order in 'Stacking order' is not actually sequential
at all.
2. The reverse sequential order in 'Recently used' is a real reverse sequential
order.
3. The forward sequential order in 'Stacking order' is a completely different
sequential order from #2.

The end result is lack of keybinding support for basic forward/backward window
walking, which is a powerful thing to bind to a rotary input device.
