Title:
  Windows: switchApp has problems with (multiple) minimized application
  windows

Status in Sikuli:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  switchApp() does not open a window when multiple instances of an
  application are minimized in Windows. Tested in Windows XP, Windows 7,
  and Server 2008 32 and 64bit.  Specifically tested with IE, Firefox,
  and Chrome.

  - It does work using Internet Explorer in Windows 7 but no other OS.  
  - It does work if the window is already expanded

  Steps to reproduce:
  - open two tabs in Internet Explorer and then minimize it
  - run something like switchApp("Internet Explorer")
  - The application will be highlighted in the task bar but no window will appear.  

  Performed tests in the following scenarios:
  Windows 7, Internet Explorer - PASS
  Windows 7, Firefox - FAIL
  Windows XP, Internet Explorer - FAIL
  Windows XP, Firefox - FAIL
  Windows XP, Chrome - FAIL
  Windows Server 2008 R2, Internet Explorer - FAIL
  Windows Server 2008 R2, Firefox - FAIL
  Windows Server 2008 R2, Chrome - FAIL
