Thanks for your contribution there.

However, as I already explained in another merge request asking for exactly the same change, setting the value to 0 is not the solution. Indeed, if you alt + tab between two applications very quickly, you will then see a flickering dialog appearing. The delay is there to prevent that and it was discussed in natty as part of a design decision.

Alt + Tab is still slow for other reason, not really linked to this 0s.

You should have a look at the other branch linked to the same bug that I rejected for the same reason. You have more explanation there as well :)
Thanks nevertheless, but think about reading all the available information please ;)
