Question is as stated in the title.

Instead of using various packages for switching windows, it might be simpler to make <C-x><C-o> behave like <C-x><C-+>, such that repeated presses of the o key after the initial <C-x><C-o> will keep switching windows.

  github.com/alphapapa/defrepeater.el looks like a general path to realize such requests as yours. When I tried that out it refused to work occasionally. Finally I stopped using it. But I guess it's worth to be rediscovered.

You could write a function similar to text-scale-adjust. E.g.

(defun mw-other-window-repeat (count &optional all-frames)
 "Wrapper around `other-window' to continue to jump to other with key o."
 (interactive "p")
 (other-window count all-frames)
 (message "Use o to jump to next window.")
 (set-transient-map
 (let ((map (make-sparse-keymap)))
 (define-key map (kbd "o")
 (lambda () (interactive) (mw-other-window-repeat 1)))
 map)))

(global-set-key (kbd "C-x o") #'mw-other-window-repeat)

C-x ooooooo

has the desired effect AFAICS. The repetition is over with another key press than o.

I use this in several of my libraries. Use it to make pretty much any command repeatable even when it's on a prefix key.

(defun repeat-command (command)
 "Repeat COMMAND."
 (require 'repeat)
 (let ((repeat-previous-repeated-command command)
 (repeat-message-function #'ignore)
 (last-repeatable-command 'repeat))
 (repeat nil)))

Then define a repeatable version of an existing command, such as other-window, just by passing that command to repeat-command. For example:

(defun other-window-repeat ()
 "Select another window in cyclic ordering of windows.
This is a repeatable version of `other-window'."
 (interactive)
 (repeat-command 'other-window))

(global-set-key (kbd "C-x 4 o") 'other-window-repeat)

hydra (https://github.com/abo-abo/hydra) are another way to get repeatable commands. This doesn't move the point on the first call, but you can press o as many times as you want to move around.

(defhydra other-window (:color red :body-pre (other-window 1))
 "other window"
 ("o" (other-window 1)))

(global-set-key (kbd "C-x o") #'other-window/body)

(defun other-window-repeat ()
 "Select another window in cyclic ordering of windows.

 (repeat-command 'other-window))
