with default window manager matchbox:
[1] start app 1
[2] ALT-P [getting back to Contentlister]
[3] start app 2
[2] switching with ALT-P/ALT-N

not shy ones can start a shell script with

Code:

killall matchbox-window-manager && /usr/bin/matchbox-window-manager -use_titlebar yes -use_cursor no -use_dialog_mode free &

to get windowed apps.
But warning:
# iRex`s apps are not designed for a windowed mode. [It's discussed in the fluxbox thread]
# the apps switcher in titlebar [triangle in the left] doesn't refresh screen, so choosing app is tricky.
