Pretty annoying, in my view.
I've got a great keyboard shortcut for that: alt-tab. The best thing about it is that it works for everything so your editor doesn't also need to integrate every other piece of software that's already available on your system. :) Seriously though, I showed my girlfriend (a social worker) how to do alt-tab a couple of months ago and she was really pleased with the productivity boost; she showed everyone at her work and is now considered an IT pro in her office!
