I use Toggle Application all the time and for a very long time I've wished it 
was just a little bit smarter.

It currently just toggles the app between hidden and not hidden and is smart 
enough to start the app if it's not running. I have several triggers for my 
most frequently use apps (Safari, Mail, Reeder, etc.) all with the Toggle 
Application action. It's great to switch between apps and to 'put away' an app 
when I'm done with it, but sometimes to get to an app, I have to hit the 
trigger twice (once to hide it and once more to activate it).

The problem is Toggle Application treats all active (non-hidden) apps the same, 
regardless of if it's frontmost. I'd like to behave as:

If not running -> activate (open)
else If hidden -> activate (make frontmost)
else if frontmost -> Hide
else activate (make frontmost)

Assuming that activate (and I'm assuming this action is a method) will open a 
non-running app, then this can be reduced to:

if app is frontmost -> Hide
else activate

I'd love it if this could be implemented. These triggers are my third most used 
Quicksilver feature (after various web search triggers and a mouse trigger for 
Hide Application).
