I am using vim on a browser-based RDP session. Unfortunately, my browser is realllllly particular about capturing the "ctrl-w" key combo, because of unrelated-to-my-specific-use-case security reasons. This prevents me from using the pane feature of vim, because when I try to switch panes, my tab closes (!!!). Is there a way to change the "pane switch" hotkey to something besides "ctrl-w" in vim?

There is no "pane switch" "hotkey" in Vim. If you want to change <C-w> to something else you will have to do it for every single <C-w><something> command:
nnoremap <key>w <C-w>w
nnoremap <key>T <C-w>T
...
Now, what <key> to use is left as an exercise for you.
