Title:
  window close/minimize buttons disappear from global menu for maximized
  windows with an open popup window

Status in Ayatana Design:
  New
Status in Unity:
  Fix Released
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: unity

  If I open (for example) Synaptic non-maximized and tell it to reload
  or apply updates, an update window appears for potentially a
  considerable length of time. With Synaptic non-maximized, it is
  possible to minimize both windows by clicking on the minimize icon in
  the main Synaptic window.

  However, with Synaptic maximized, the minimize/close window buttons
  disappear from the global menu when the child window is opened.
  Because it is a modal popup window, you cannot switch the focus back
  to Synaptic. This means you can no longer minimize Synaptic, which is
  a regression.

  A workaround would be to allow the application to be minimized from
  the unity launcher, eg by making it (like every other
  launcher/dockbar) minimize a focused application when you click on its
  icon (eg as requested in bug #733349), or by adding a right-click menu
  option to minimize the application.
