I have 3 monitors and I play on the middle one, I'd like to be able to switch out of the game back to Windows, to a random program like instant messenger or Chrome without pausing the game or minimizing it.

Is this possible?

Basically much like alt + tab currently does, except that it minimizes the game and the game stops.

Another example is VirtualBox, it allows you to switch from the virtualized OS back to the host by pressing control. The virtualized OS still runs and is not minimized.
