Alt-tab is a poor work-around in some cases: many of us are relying heavily on
Zoom meetings these days. When you screen-share in Zoom, Zoom places a narrow
control panel at the top of the screen, which floats on top of shared
applications if they are maximized or smaller than screen size. But if the
shared application is full screen, it covers the Zoom control panel, so you
can't see notifications etc.  Alt-Tab is a reasonable way to access a hidden
application to DO something, but it is a clumsy way to poll for incoming chats
or other notifications.

I understand that LibreOffice owes nothing to Zoom, but there are probably a
lot of us sharing Impress presentations in Zoom meetings. So this is just a
vote to raise the priority of the feature.
