I don't use TwoPane, but what about adding a step number 4 where you
bring t3 up in the window order (with Mod+Shift+k). Now you should be
able to easily switch between t1 and t3 in a single step. So I'm
thinking:

                   (t1) |  t2  |  t3	visible: t1 | t2	
 -> Mod+j ->        t1  | (t2) |  t3	visible: t1 | t2
 -> Mod+j ->        t1  |  t2  | (t3)	visible: t1 | t3
 -> Mod+Shift+k ->  t1  | (t3) |  t2	visible: t1 | t3

Or do you feel that's too much 'preparation work'? :-)

Cheers!

Jan
