Majority of users do not even know about these sites. As I posted in comment, basic users do not minimize windows, they switch them, it is easier and quicker (they do not need to remember what is under which windows and so on, they just pick what they want to use). But I appreciate there is

Please in the interest of user choice allow the option to minimise on click even if not on by default. It is great to see that there is now a PPA that can be installed to give the functionality that 221 Ubuntu users (as a minumum) have asked for. See:
