But here again you are proposing a solution where I don't see a
problem.

Ok there are two things I understand from this description.

First, 1.3 had a [X] that implemented minimize. So you are confused
because 1.4 uses [X] for a different purpose. I totally forgot that
1.3 had an [X] button, I thought we added it new to 1.4.

Second, I'm now in a jam because I need a two icons one for
"deactivate" (1.4 uses [X]) and one for minimize (1.4 uses [_]).

I hope you can understand why I can't just change the [X] button to
implement minimize. Then I don't have a button for deactivate and I
have two buttons that both implement minimize right next to each
other.
