In the preview section of the Tab strip customizer, when the Navigation Mode is set to “Swap to Window”, change the “Tab Name” field from a text box to a combo box (drop down list that also allows free form text input), allowing users to select from all windows instead of requiring them to type in the case sensitive window name.

From new user navigation confusion.
