My bad, but the fact remains that minimizing a window will change
nothing in overview.
My point was more that you have to reconsider your workflow instead of
trying to retrieve a feature that's becoming less useful.

Yes, there is. Right-click on the window title, and click minimize.
There is also a dconf setting which can re-enable the minimize button,
and gnome-tweak-tool
There is no minimize per say in Gnome Shell (there not even a button for
this).
Instead of changing the code (mutter or gnome shell) or even creating an
extension, I suggest you simply change your workflow.
Like you I have Evolution on 100% of the time.
I simply put it in another workspace. Usually
Hi,
I wanted to say that I really love GNOME 3, nice work all. :)
One thing I'm missing is a way to get windows out of the way when I don't want
to work with them. For instance, I keep Evolution running 100% of the time but
only check it every now and then. Same with Banshee, it's always running
Unity is not gnome shell. It is an Ubuntu project, and they own they copyright
to all the source code. Gnome shell is the official gnome desktop, which is
much better IMHO. If you don't like that, gnome classic is still available and
supported. This list is for questions and concerns related

We all (on this list) know about the extension, I personally have a
key shortcut for powering off. The discussion is about the choice of
hiding the Power Off option and the effect it has on your average
user. The problem is that most people don't look things up, if they
don't know how to do it th

I was mentioned at least once [by me] and summarily disregarded. Of

sorry for double posting forgot to include that in the end it's the
person's choice whether they want to 'waste' the few seconds it takes
to shutdown/bootup or not. The user will look at the value of
shutting down and saving some energy vs. the few seconds they might
have to wait to boot up and ma

The only real cultural mismatch I think exists here is what the right
response is to do if the user gets confused by a menu that says:
Suspend
Hibernate
Power Off
Restart
Is the right thing to do to provide training for the user, or is the
right thing to do to improve the user interface? I'm
The whole argument for not having Power Off as a visible option in the menu
seems to boil down to cultural convention. And I hope everyone here
understands that people do things in different ways in different cultures.
Sometimes people even do things differently than the local convention.
