I refered to the windows list obtained by momentarily pressing the middle, 
2nd, mouse button. When the mouse is located at the root (background) window.  
    <!-- Menus -->
    <mousebind button="Middle" action="Press">
      <action name="ShowMenu"><menu>client-list-combined-menu</menu></action>
    </mousebind> 
From my rc.xml.
With my configuration,
  <!-- Keybindings for window switching -->
  <keybind key="A-Tab">
    <action name="NextWindow">
      <finalactions>
        <action name="Focus"/>
        <action name="Raise"/>
        <action name="Unshade"/>
      </finalactions>
    </action>
  </keybind>
I believe those settings are very common.
