[Bug 734253] Re: very hard to distinguish/select text documents in the expose window spread
I want to confirm the need for this bug being solved and I completely agree with Bazon. At the moment it is really hard to navigate between multiple documents of the same application. And in my opinion, the easy navigation is really a basic functionality that should be implemented. I think maybe the easiest solution at the moment is that the text bar you get if you hover over with the mouse, is just always visible for all the documents, so you can see which documents are in open at a glance, and you do not have to hover over each document separately to see the document titles.
