For our application that's inappropriate. Users are not allowed to
switch the app (imagine an online driver's license test application -
cheating not allowed).

1. It's not your computer, they are our computer systems our software
runs on.
2. Users are not _allowed_ to switch to a different application.
This is a fixed requirement, it is not up for discussion.
