The document switching keyboard command (ctrl-` by default)
should be configurable in the key bindings area of the preferences
pane.

    Wow, I didn't even realize that feature existed! Is that DrJava code
    or built into Java? The pop-up is impressive...

    The problem with making it configurable is that it is
    treated completely differently than other keys with regards
    to key-up and key-down events and shift.

    Unfortunately, sometimes there's a bug that lets DrJava go
    into an infinite loop, consuming 99% CPU. I haven't been
    able to track down greater details, but it seems to happen
    most often when I tab backwards past the originally open
    document.
