I think the thumbnail should be scrapped on the tooltip. I vote for an option to show the thumbnails tiled on the Ctrl-Tab screen.

Not exactly what you describe, but try this anyway:
opera:config#UserPrefs|UseThumbnailsinWindowCycle = 1

Yeah I know but that interface isn't that intuitive either. It's not entirely clear that the selected page in the list corresponds to the middle image on the right side.

The page title needs to be closer to its thumbnail (ie. on top or underneath) and a box drawn around the pair. The only way I can think of to get that to work is to tile them. Of course, something needs to be done if there are too many thumbnails to fit in one screen. Perhaps scrolling could manage this, or shrinking.

If you want 'quick tabs', why not press Shift+F6? :)
