Like the title suggests - currently the only way I know of to switch between windows is by using the mouses cursor.

Research direction
Start by reproducing CtrlW in the micro terminal editor using the reported macOS Catalina and iTerm2 setup, then trace the terminal shortcut handling. Done means CtrlW reliably switches windows without requiring the mouse; the issue provides no file or test path, so locating the relevant code will require project exploration.
