Is it only me who finds the form of the minimize and maximize icons
irritating? The first thing I do after (re-)installing Ubuntu is
deleting the lower panel and adding the windows list to the upper panel.
Thus, the minimize button (arrow down) no longer points to the window
list. More than once I wrongly clicked on the maximize button (arrow up)
when I wanted to minimize the window.

Mac OS X uses the symbols - and +, which can't be confused.

Another option would be a small and a large rectangle.

(I won't discuss the stupidity of window button placement here, as this
already has been done in abundance here. The whole discussion is a clear
sign that fundamental GUI changes should be made much earlier in the
development process ...)
