You should mention the release you are using.  I'm going to assume
its a current beta.

You can remove the built in binding like this:

Key Tab A M -

You can assign the window list to Control Tab like this:

Key Tab A C WindowList Root c c NoDeskSort

Unfortunately control-tab doesn't seem to be a good key to use
with the SelectOnRelease feature in the current betas.  Maybe someone
else has a better key to use.
