The problem I find with the windows and task bar in Rev (IDE) is that
the windows are "semi-"independent.
With the IDE open, and one main stack open - 2 task bar icons
Iconize the stack - still 2 task bar icons
De-iconize it - still 2 task bar icons
Iconize the IDE main window - the main stack is also iconized, *but
there's now only 1 task bar icon*
De-iconize it - the IDE opens, and a *new task bar icon appears* for the
main stack, so now 2 task bar icons
I find that all rather confusing - but trivial compared to the annoyance
that I can't raise/lower/focus windows using the usual key shortcuts; I
really hate it when a script editor window gets trapped beneath other
windows, and I have to shuffle the other windows around (or close them)
until I can click somewhere in the editor window.
