CTL-Fn works just fine for me, but it doesn't give me any advantage 
over clicking in the panel to switch desktops.  When I switch, the
window I want still isn't raised.  I have to click there to enter the
window.

That's why I like the new taskbar arrangement so well.  When I select
a window via the taskbar, the window is raised and I can start keying
immediately.
