Bug Description
Symptom: I press Shift+Alt+Tab and the task switcher comes up, but the it cycles forward through the windows. When I release Shift, but still hold Alt, and press Tab, it cycles backwards.
What should happen: If I press Alt+Tab, it cycles forward through the windows. If I hold Alt, then press Shift, it should cycle backwards. If I press Shift, then press Alt+Tab, it should cycle /backward/ through the windows, when I release shift, it should cycle forward through the windows.
I have a stock install of Ubuntu Hardy, with all updates applied as of 1:22p -0400 on Thu, 08 May 2008.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.
