[Bug 877702] [NEW] Regression - [Super + W] includes minimized windows

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

In Natty [Super + W] used to show windows on all workspaces but not
minimized ones. In Oneiric all windows are shown from all workspaces
including minimized ones. If you have more than a few programs running
Super + W becomes pretty much useless as an 'improved productivity'
tool.

I suggest either:
That the behavior is reverted to be the same as Natty - [Super + W] shows windows from all workspaces but NOT minimized windows.
Or
That when [Super + W] is used minimized windows are separated a bit like  in OS X >= Snow Leopard (see screenshot attached) to make it easy to tell what you are currently working on and what you're not.

Notice in the OS X screenshot the minimized windows are included but
they are separated from 'open' windows  by a line; they are shown
smaller and they are shown near to the dock/launcher.
