--- Comment #35 from Jens Reuterberg <jens@ohyran.se> ---
Well here I have to sort of go against the grain a tad - for me finding
different windows is first off all a "Present windows" thing, second its about
just finding where an individual window is - meaning I tend to look for it,
then look at the taskbar to see if it's minimized.

That said though - if eyesight and reading greyed out text is an issue, we
might as well look it over again anyway AND if the greyed out color makes it
tricky to see it to enough people we probably should fix it somehow.

It shouldn't be TOO tricky to solve all three problems (text to light, icon to
grey and the ability to see what state a window is in) and still keep it
clutter free. One idea would be to show it with the line underneath instead? 
The Blue line underneath means the window is in focus, grey line means it's not
- and what if no line (transparent or something similar) means it's minimized?
That would make the text easy to read, icons easy to spot AND would show what
window is and isn't minimized without breaking conformity to the style.
