  Just my 0.02$:

-the minimize animation should go in the right direction
(for example kscd does dock on minimize, but the animation
goes up to the toolbar not down to the panel)
-and it would be really nice if we would have a different
icon if programs are performing docking on minimize.
Actually I think that kscd is performing docking on both
minimize and close, so no need of two icons there. 

  Actually, it seems that we are rather advanced if we are
dealing with such details problems. :-)
