I wanted to do something similar, so I found another way to get similar
effects. I do two things:

1) Instead of minimizing the windows, just move them over to another
workspace. I use the Emerld Theme Manager with a theme that gives me an
available drop box on the top left corner of the window to move it to
another workspace.

2) When you select your plugin in Compiz (in your case the 'Shift
Switcher', use the option "Initiate Windows Picker for All Windows".
Enabling the All Windows will display all windows in all workspaces.

That should give you very similar effects. Finding the easiest way to
move a window to another workspace would be your best way to "minimize"
your desktop clutter.
