How to choose a application without using the mouse in Lion Mission Control?

Solution 1:

Try hyperswitch (https://bahoom.com/hyperswitch) - you can switch between windows only from current desktop.

Solution 2:

No. I haven't found any, but that's not surprising. Mission Control was provided for mouse / touch interaction. Have you tried using Command ⌘+Tab for app switching and Command ⌘+`for window switching?

They are much more efficient if you're interested in keeping your hands on the keys.
