Title:
[FFE][UIFE] Window management - We should be able to close windows in
spread mode
Status in Ayatana Design:
Fix Released
Status in Unity:

Status in ubuntu-docs package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
== Proposed Change ==
Add a small titlebar to each window in spread mode with just a close
button. Allows users to close windows in the spread
== Test ==
None as of yet.
This code is mostly all UI/Rendering code and wasn't exactly testable.
It might be worthwhile looking into writing AP tests for the close
functionality. The two revisions in question are:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~unity-team/unity/trunk/revision/2650
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~unity-team/unity/trunk/revision/2662
I can vouch as the reviewer that the code was written correctly and
functions like the other compiz draw-on-windows code.
== Contingency? ==
We should just be able to revert those revisions. As nothing else is
planned to change on those code sections, reverting them should be
trivial.
1.Open 3 windows of nautilus or any application.
2. Click on the application's icon in the launcher to activate spread mode.
3. If you want to close one of the windows, you have to click on its preview,
than close it when it has focus. However, we should be able to close it
directly in spread mode (like in gnome shell) by clicking on a close button in
the upper left corner of each preview.
I attached a picture of how its done in gnome shell.
