@ Webster:

" + - X "  ...  " ^ v X "  ...  " [ ] _ X "  is obviously the same and
the most used symbols I saw over the last years in Windows-decorations
in gnome-look.org for example.

"^" means simply: up - bigger - grow
"v" means oviously: down - small - minimize

The next is the design-issue... put "v" and "^" together and you will
get a "X". It contains more consistency than " + - X "  ... " [ ] _ X "
if we look critical over it.

Last but not least ... Imagine that " [ ] _ X " in a round button. You
think it will looks fine?

But it's true. " ^ v X " is the first time I see in a default theme.
Peoples who aren't familiar in changing the default-look will have to
accustom to this new kind of symbols (for them), too.
