Or another alternative is to keep this effect for the dashboard, but the
dashboard alone, since it always was a different beast.
for show desktop applet and hot corners, using the minimize all script, that
even if we well know it has issues, it's a bit less confusing
Then we can switch back when the effect behaves well with windows that are
opened while the effect is enabled.
to summarise, what i gather would be needed is:
* windows are hidden with something else than the minimize attribute, in order
to not lose it
* when a new window appears, that something else does not get applied, and the
window is visible
* when a window gets activated trough taskbar or alt+tab, that something else
gets removed and the window gets visible
* when the effect gets disabled, all windows go visible, but not all, since the
minimized/not minimized state stays exactly as it was before the effect was
applied
* forgot something?
