Regardless of auto-hide etc. I tend to agree with the original post in
that a single key to close everything except the code window would be
very usfull.

I would like to go a stage further and suggest that it should be a
toggle between max code window and current settings for all windows in
that if several panes are open and key is hit you get left with max
code window. Hit the key again and it returns the ide to it's original
state prior to max code window. Hope this makes sense.

Also a related request:

Could we have auto-hide of panes that make no sense in the current
context. eg. In our projects I often find myself using idea to edit a
simple test ASP file. But I also usually have the structure pane open
and of course this makes no sense for ASP and so is left blank -
better to auto-hide it until a file type that can use it is selected
in the editor.
