You can also use alt-backtick to cycle between instances of the same
application. It took me a little while to get used to but I'm actually quite
liking it now.

E.g if I have several instances of gnome-terminal and firefox running I'll use
alt-tab to select terminal or browser and then shift my ring finger up one key
to cycle the instances with alt-`.
