The new behaviour is "nice in princliple" but is has a
major that IMHO needs to be fixed.

1. I start scid on it's own desktop (10-Database)
2. I switch to any other desktop
3. I come back to desktop 10: all scid windows are
    minimized. :(

Could that be fixed? Otherwise, going back to the old cold
