[ubuntu] nautilus usb window switch

This is a very minor issue which I am, nonetheless, finding somewhat annoying. Under Ubuntu 16.04 when I insert a usb thumb drive it launches a window of nautilus displaying the contents of the thumb drive, as it should. However, it doesn't seem to "think" of this as a window of nautilus because if I already have a nautilus window open I can't switch between the two windows using ALT+`. This seems to be new in 16.04. Somehow the nautilus window pointing at the thumb drive is "special" and functions as if it is a window of a different application. Is this the expected behaviour, and is there some setting of nautilus, perhaps, which I can set so that a nautilus window displaying contents of a thumb drive will be treated just like any other nautilus window?

By the way, I am otherwise finding 16.04 to be very good. The laptop I'm using it on seems to be performing much better under 16.04 than it did under 14.04 (quicker, seems not to heat up as much, much longer battery life).

Cheers!
