How to Disable Toggle Open Documents in NetBeans?

NetBeans (7) is very nice for letting you customize your keyboard shortcuts.

Personally, I want ctrl-tab to switch to the tab to the right and ctrl-shift-tab to switch left, but at the moment these launch the annoying Toggle Between Open Documents popup:

Aforementioned annoying popup

I have already set my keyboard shortcuts to have "next tab" using the workaround for getting the tab in there described here, but the Toggle Open Documents behavior is not configurable from that menu and is overriding my shortcut.

:(?

*PS: No desire to switch my whole key bindings over to another profile.

Using Netbeans 7.2, I find that after configuring the shortcuts as per your screenshots briefly pressing CTRL+TAB switches to the tab to the right, and pressing CTRL+SHIFT+TAB briefly switches to the tab to the left. The annoying popup thing only appears if you press and hold these buttons.

I claim it cannot be done, because if it could be then someone on SO would know how to do it.
