Mark, what I don't understand in this case is that :

-it's the standard behavior in Gnome, so people are used to it

-I agree that you can use the icon to minimize, but what if you want to
minimize several applications ? You have to move your mouse a lot. Using
a click in the taskbar is very quick

-and last but not least, it's not like if this option was replacing
another more interesting behavior ! And it's exactly how it's working
for the "applications" and "files & folders" lenses ! You click, it
opens. You click again, it hides it. I really find it a pity that this
click is not used. Especially as it's the simplest operation on a lens.
A "right click" + something is much longer.

I guess I should write all this on the Ayatana ML. But I tried to get
used to this behavior, and I still find myself clicking on the
application icons and waiting. Maybe it's a bad habit. And even if it's
one, I still think it's a pity to waste this click. Maybe the minimize
function is not the right one for it, I'm open to any good idea. But as
of today, it's wasted to me. Too bad, Unity is quite good at making
things efficient, a single click is still something worth using I think
:)
