Yes, these displays of hubris on the part of the unity development clan
(which reflect on Ubuntu as a whole) are very unsettling and difficult
to accept. I'm not sure if it's tunnel-vision with their eyes on a long-
term goal with no distractions (read: options) or ignorance as to how
users are accustomed to using computers regularly (read: dock launchers
minimize windows).

The number of me-too's here clearly reflect a great desire for at least
the option, even if not by default, for this expected behavior. I simply
cannot wrap my head around the fact that if Mark S. et al are actually
using natty/oneiric with Unity, how they are not also frustrated by the
extra mouse movement, mouse clicks, and eye movement which have now
become necessary to accomplish ordinary (formerly simple) tasks of
window management. That aside, if they think the current behavior is
just dandy, why not throw the rest of us users a bone and allow this
feature/behavior to be optional.

The community responded with desire for this functionality. Marco, in
turn, submitted a patch for review. Please now just review, fix the
nits, and add the little tick-box in CCSM so we can enjoy using Unity
efficiently. Done deal. Happy users. Is that not important any longer?
200,000 not looking likely with the attitude displayed here.
