The mockups look awesome, excuse me if this is off-topic but I wanted to comment on the windicators themselves.
I find the saved/unsaved windicator is confusing. Can someone describe the projected behavior? My questions is this: if multiple documents are open does it reflect the state of the active document, or the global state where if just one document is unsaved it goes to the unsaved state. In the former case, it's not really window level state, and in the latter it will probably tend to always be red- which is kind of useless. However, I think an important point to note is that while that's not useful in the window itself, it is useful in the alt-tab menu for the case where you've minimized a window but forgot that you were working on something, you can be alerted that you have unsaved work.
