Thanks. I guess the downside of this workaround is slower switching between
the two top windows (because we have to wait for Witch to display).

Not on a per-action basis. Set the delay slider to zero and it'll work, but it'll affect all switchers. A future version—not near-future—may allow per-switcher control over more of Witch's features.

If you create a new switcher that's not sorted by activity order—by window title, for instance—then the switcher will appear with the search field active and you can start typing.
