** Description changed:

  The new unity window switching specification says the following about the spread:
  "For applications which provide a New Window option or equivalent (currently accessed by middle clicking the Launcher icon or choosing the option from the right mouse button menu), a New Window item is displayed in the spread. When this window is highlighted, it will be outlined by the orange glow border and show the caption New Window, but does not show a title-bar or close button.
  The user can click on this item to create a new window, bring it to front and focus it and exit the spread."
