As part of the big bug review for 16.04 LTS I have tested this on 15.10 and the bug is still there. I think this is a feature request rather than a bug.

When one has to close many windows, it gets a little annoying to have to go through all of them one at a time. It would be nice to enter the switcher with Alt+Tab and then (holding Alt as for the command Alt+`) having a combination like Alt+q that closes the focused window.
