Description Owen Taylor 2009-09-25 22:48:58 UTC 
You shouldn't have to alt-tab over minimized windows to switch between the windows that are currently open.

[AppIcon] Sort minimized windows after normal ones in AppIcon menu

Makes sense to me to do this as well.

Still need more thinking about behavior for:

 - Applications on other desktops
 - Applications with demands-attention windows

And the interaction of all three (how does an app with a demands attention window on another workspace behave? etc.)

But that can build upon these patches later.
