Agreed with everyone here.

The launcher already takes up a lot of space, so you might as well make it do 
something other than open an application.
Think about the basic design principles. 

1. How often do you think people will want to open new applications?
2. How often will people want to minimize these applications?

Number two, if you haven't guessed correctly, will be used the most often... 
and it is the feature not supported.
There is no good reason to not make windows minimize on click, except to piss 
people off.
Yes, there is a minimize button on the top of every window. But look at the 
size of this button to the launcher. I don't think its a fair comparison.  The 
amount of effort it takes to aim for the small button is way beyond what I have 
to do to click the massive launcher button.

I'm already disappointed enough with the launcher not being able to move
locations. This is why I switched to Linux in the first place. I might
as well go back to Windows and have a launcher that works the way I want
it to.

Stop making decisions for us.
This goes against the meaning of the word Ubuntu.
