I understand the difference between blur, focus and minimize. I just
couldn't remember exactly what 1.3 did. That's why I put "hide/
minimize" (emphasis on hide) in the subject. I should have put "blur/
give focus/minimize" instead. My bad.

I guess I'm shocked that no one else has brought this up because I
thought it would be really obvious. I guess most people use Firebug
inline in the browser or on a separate monitor though?
