 Stack and Tile currently uses Option+left and Option+right arrows to
 switch to the left and right tabs in a tab group and Option+Up and
 Option+Down to switch between next and previous window groups. These
 shortcuts are already being used by applications so may not be used by
 S&T.

 The application that I noticed this on was Eddie, a text editor for BeOS
 which uses option+left to move back a word and option+right to move
 forward a word. When I include an Eddie window in a tab group these
 shortcuts are overridden.

 Alternatives might include Ctrl+Alt+[left,right,up,down)-arrow or perhaps
 option+tab for next tab, option+shift+tab for previous tab, option+pgup
 for previous window group, option+pgdn for next window group provided that
 those shortcuts those keys are not also used by applications.
