I fully agree with Dave's use case from #351.

I like "spread" behavior that acts when multiple windows are open. In work I 
use Windows 7 and it has similar behavior (opens mini list) but I prefer how 
Unity works [1]. But Windows 7 allows me to minimize the window if it's only 
one and this is really comfortable. It serves double purpose:
 - allows you to acutally minimize the window to clear the desktop,
 - if I get lost in open windows allows me to quickly locate the window (during 
the minimizing transition) and I can easily re-click the same icon to have it 
open and activated, this sort of duplicates what the "spread" action allows me 
to do in a consistent manner.

Long story short: IMO minimizing a single active window with a click in
the laucher is a desirable behavior for me and is consistent with other
dash functions.

[1] The small improvement would be adding bigger letered titles to
windows minatures in "spead" for easier recognition but that's off-topic
here.
