Would it be possible to assign it via code change or via extension settings to trigger the Switcher with only "Super". Instead of needing two keys. I would like to Switcher become my default launcher/searcher/window picker.

I don't know if it's possible in GNOME, but you can cheat and do it with keyd. If you put the following it /etc/keyd/default.conf then plain super will open switcher (assuming you have the default Super+w as your keyboard shortcut):

meta = overload(meta, M-w)

@daniellandau It almost worked 100%, the behaviour is exactly what I wanted. The only problem is when no window is open the switcher just "flick" show on the screen then goes away.

After opening at least one window, it works well as expected.

Thank you for this "hack" solution :)
