What is "the first menu"?

Isn't this what XaAES does?

I find it much easier to select an app (or a specific window) using the  
taskmanager than cycling with TAB.

I only use Ctrl-Alt-Shift-Tab which I've bound to Ctrl-Alt-Esc to switch  
between clients.

That would conflict in aranym on windows, and might be a valid hotkey in  
MiNT.
