Description Jesse Glick 2004-06-01 20:37:14 UTC 
Current dev build.

I have the "VCS Output" window in sliding mode and
currently slid in.

1. Double-clicking the window title bar does not
maximize it as it does for normal windows. It does
nothing.

2. Pressing Shift-Escape produces a bizarre
result; seems to maximize the list of sliding
window buttons, instead of the selected window.
See screenshot.

Worse, after restoring the editor window etc., it is impossible to get
back to Output and VCS Output (the two items slid out to the south),
by KB shortcut or Window menu. Have to shut down and restart before I
can see these windows again.

Should either make Maximize work sanely on sliding windows, or disable it.
