Description

Hi,

I really like your extension, and I think it's a huge addition to the default Gnome Shell. I have been using the Window Focus option on the Dynamic Keybinding Behavior which is working greatly, but I wish there was an option to remove the animation shown when switching focus.

At first it's useful to know that you are changing the focus to the other window, but after a while I find it quite distracting, specially when I'm switching constantly between two applications. I think having the option to remove it would be great.

Research direction

Start by tracing the Window Focus Dynamic Keybinding Behavior and the animation it triggers; the payload does not name files or tests. Done means an option can disable that animation while switching focus continues to work normally.
