This could be very inconsistent. Maybe return with the dash button to
the place, where currently window controls are?

There was a huge discussion some time ago about this, but for me this
would clutter the launcher (new window for browser, new email for
Thunderbird, what for Calculator?). Currently when the window is on top
and focused, Unity does absolutely nothing when window launcher is
clicked (icon is not grayed out, so it should *DO* something, at least
blink). That's useless when I have 6 fullscreen apps, 7 terminals,
calculator and something else and want to minimize few of them - I have
to focus first fullscreen app, then I have to move the mouse to minimize
another app that is focused but not in full-screen mode, then I have to
go to the top to minimize another fullscreen window that gets focused
after minimizing the last one etc. - because of Compiz stacking
behaviour. It's not a bug, it should stack windows like that, otherwise
it could break some apps. It takes time and it's a let's say a pain in
the backside when I have to get to window layout I want, but I have so
many fullscreen windows open that spread doesn't tell me anything.
If minimize by launcher were possible, I could simply Super+1, Super+3,
Super+7 and I'm all done having few windows I want, insted of 20 clicks
and moving mouse along the whole desktop.

I really like the current idea of removing the "Dodge" feature.
I also like it and have my 11.10 set that way.
But
window controls for maximized window are slightly to the left of the
window's top left corner, so this might be confusing.
I thought the same. The solution could be :
a) in case always visible, to let the left panel/launcher cover the
whole left edge of the screen and the dash button moved the to the top
left corner. Let the top( the one with the global menu) bar come under
the left panel rather above. The control button will be not below the
the dash button but moved a bit, equal to the width of left
panel/launcher, to the right and they will be on the corner of the
maximized window.
b)in case launcher is set to dodge, We let the top bar cover the whole
top edge and move the window control button to the top left. It also
works fine because when somebody invokes the left launcher then, in my
personal thinking, he won't be using window control button. So, if they
goes below the left panel for those moments when launcher is revealed,
nothing goes wrong.
I hope I am not missing something important.
Aligning the
buttons plus click twice launcher icon to minimize app instead
of doing
nothing will make Unity perfect for me and some people that have
tried it.
I would more like it to be application dependent. For browser, I would
like it to be new window.
But I dont't have any idea what to do to align the buttons and
not waste
space... but this has to be done, because the user won't know if
he's
closing/minimizing the window or something else.

Please re-read my email describing the test results. 'extra

translates to 'total confusion when maximising windows' in
practice.
