Add minimize on click feature to unity precise and trusty
PPA description
This allows minimize application's windows upon clicking its launcher icon.
/* Behaviour:
* 1) Nothing running, or nothing visible -> launch application
* 2) Running and active:
* -> if 1 window open -> minimize
* -> if 2 or more windows open -> spread application
* 3) Running and not active -> focus application
* 4) Spread is active and different icon pressed -> change spread
* 5) Spread is active -> Spread de-activated, and minimize all windows
