The idea constits in focus on more than one window when presents windows. For example, select more than one window with rigth click and continue working with those scaled windows.

I think that can be usuful when you are working on more than one document.

Yes Present Windows is really the best Desktop Effect hands down. Adding an interactive mode sort of thing would make it so much more powerful.

Imagine quickly typing an IM/IRC, changing an Amarok track, checking at a web page, whatever, all from within Present Windows and while busily working from a different virtual desktop [in Present All Windows] and/or simply not worrying about disturbing windowing Z order . Whereas currently, the former process is: change desktop or present windows and activate => do whatever action, change back to original desktop.

Enter/exit "Interactive Mode" could be hotkeyable inside Present window mode to input focus over the highlighted window or something.

I've been considering feature requesting this eventually myself once I have a clearer idea of the implementation and use cases.

IMO Present Windows, generally, has even much more potential to offer...just needs some brainstorming love.
