Nicolás Abel Carbone (nicocarbone) wrote : Minimizing a window should switch focus to the windows underneath it

When you minimize a window to the launcher, it remains with the focus, meaning that, for example, the global menu is the menu of the now minimized window.
The focus should automatically go to the window immediately underneath it or, if no other window is open, to the desktop.
It is particularly confusing when you minimize a window and then go to the global menu, expecting it to be the menu of the window being displayed on top now, but instead is the menu of the app you just minimized.
