[Usability] [Feature]: Middle click an application in the bar on the shortcuts opens the app in the back ground.

New to the list, but I assume this is a good a place as any to talk about it. I think it would be nice if we could middle click on the apps to let them load in the background. Many times I like to open a collection of software when I work. For example, Scribes Text Editor, Agave color tool, M

Actually, a middle click on a icon opens the application in a new workspace and put it foreground. To let an app loading in the background, you could drag the icon of the app in the workspace you are in or in another workspace displayed on the workspace list on the right of the overview. It could a
