Description
Please add something that would animate the window to switch to, not all other windows except that. For example, a simple color highlight.
When there are two windows on screen, instinct tells you've switched to the one that flickers, but in case of fast switcher's alpha fade it's the other way around.
Also, please make it cycle through minimized windows (at the far end of cycle)

Research direction
Start by locating the fast-switcher implementation and its handling of minimized windows. Compare the current alpha-fade behavior with the requested target-window highlight and define how minimized windows should participate at the far end of the cycle. Done means both behaviors are implemented and their switching behavior is verified.
