@jp971, any point to that quote ?

Ctrl+Tab popups this list and selects the second item if it exists. So, the first and the second items trade places.
Can you make the same behaviour in new component `wxAuiNotebook` or make this variant as option of behaviour?

You mean the Visual Studio-style for switching tabs. I'm sorry, but I strongly dislike that method: you never know how many Ctrl+Tab presses you need for switching to a tab that is two positions ahead, or even the contiguous one - it depends on the tabs you have been on previously. And I don't want to stop my work for reading a pop-up list in order to just switch to the tab two positions ahead.
I usually work at the same time in more than two tabs. Working in Visual Studio really pisses me off because each time I need to switch to another tab, I must either stop my workflow to read the pop-up list and locate the target tab, or start pressing Ctrl-Tab two times, then three, four and so on until I reach the desired tab.
So I really like the current C::B style of switching tabs in the same order as they are seen: if I want to go to the tab two positions ahead, simply two fast Ctrl-Tab and I'm there. Return to the previous tab is two fast Ctrl-Shift-Tab, and ready to continue. If I'm working on two or more tabs frequently, then I move them to closer positions. But the point is that I only need a quick look at the tabs to quickly move to any of them.

To @Edy
Going to another tab without mouse don't require a list. List is required to find item by name. In your case you need just 2 shortcuts to switch between tabs in 2 opposite directions.
As for Visual Studio tabs switching style - in eclipse this made as I described before.
In this case will be great to have an option or another additional popup list to the existent one. And shortcuts each user can configure himself.
The problem is that I used such behaviour and it disappears in latest nightlies. It's bad for me. :(

It is a wxWidgets bug, and can be fixed by this post:
