Usually just double tap my mouse with two finger to show all my open windows and remote desktops. Then click on which ever. Remote desktop supports copy/paste between all the machines. Usually have 4 computers I am working between.

Just wish I could do remote sessions on my AppleTV as well.
SSH and remote desktop are fine for tasks they are suited for.

But they are not suited for all tasks.

Some of us use apps that are simply unusable unless full screen and simply do not tolerate the latency, no matter how low, inherent in a remote session.
