I deleted my earlier post as thanks to brkn i've managed to add the Dbus calls!
Also he has helped me to make the script cleaner.
As before Exec=/bin/sh /home/user/cyclotron.sh allows 1 icon to toggle between killing/starting the switcher as well as printing in banner whether it is started/stopped
Contents of /home/user/cyclotron.sh (note icon take from project page; if you don't want the icon just replace the "path/to/icon/" string with '') :
The last optional stage if needed would be to make it a toggle like Piratebox which shows the status although I'm not very sure about implementing a toggled icon like Piratebox due to speed issues...
I understand the above may be very basic for most so please ignore it; I'm just sharing what I managed for my set-up
N.B. The above has been edited to point everything to cyclotron instead of generic names like switcher or cycle as well as an icon has been added which can be gotten from the project page. Screenshots for the above can be viewed here and here...

For the lazy guys like me, I created few desktop files and a png icon.
After you install the cyclotron deb file, copy the .desktop files to /usr/share/applications
and copy the icon to usr/share/icons/hicolor/80x80 (optional)
you'll have four icons for starting, killing swutcher, previous window, and next window.
you can link these to myMoves to have a swipey ui switching running

Systemui is still opensource so it is possible (if somebody wants to hack it) to implement swipe on the statusbar (a bit hard to hit though) to switch between windows.

Thxk. This is awesome.
I use this by ProfileMatic with custom action. Now I can switch between apps when the device is awake and disable it when it's idle.

Does the new version of this program only flips one app per keypress or continously (when clicking and holding volume button down) like the first version did? I'd prefer the second behaviour to be disabled, no use for it at all, it just gets in the way too often. Please share an info if it can be disabled.
Edit: Silly idea, activate it when the proximity sensor is closed and the phone tilts, so that closing the proximity sensor and tilting left cycles left etc...
