The latter is already implemented in our current sources and will
be in the next beta, which will be out in a few days.  We don't
yet have alt+number style switching; let us know if you still think
it's needed given ctrl+pageup/down.

A related change in the next beta, by the way, is that we've changed
the forward/back buttons on the editor to traverse history rather
than tabs.  So if you goto-definition (or whatever), you can easily 
get back.  I'm finding this reduces greatly the need for manually 
seeking out files.

Thanks for the suggestion!
