Window Minimization in Snow Leopard

{democracy:59}

I've switched to minimizing into the application icon, but sometimes I wish the icon would badge itself with the number of minimized windows or in some way indicate that it's "holding" some of my windows. I don't feel as though I've gained much by switching, but it feels different, and sometimes a little change is good for you. It probably takes longer to switch between windows because, with Spaces, I've never been one to minimize a ton of windows anyway. I may switch back at some point…

On a related note, I really like that Exposé now works with minimized windows.

  1. I keep the minimization like it was. I like to see that there are several windows of several applications minimized.
    If I have an application with many minimized windows cluttering the dock, I still can hide this app and the minimized windows in the dock are also hidden ; most probably that this is the webbrowser and I like to focus on sth. else.
