Double click on docked tabs to minimize/restore windows (leave the tab visible)

[Vagelis]

My request is to double click on tabs of docked windows so they would minimize/restore the window without hiding the tab. This way we could restore fast the window from each tab when we want to work with it, or minimize it (not hide the tab!) to save space on arrange.

This is also useful when we have a lot of docked scripts or instruments and we want to reopen each of them separately. By double clicking on tabs, it would be very easy and fast to restore any window tab.

Also it would be nice to have an option on docker right click menu, similar to "show tab close buttons", but to "show tab minimize buttons", which it would be an alternative way to minimize the docked window with an "-" symbol next to "x".

This would be consistent to other ui-elements. For instance, double-clicking the line between tcp and tracks allows minimizing/maximizing tcp which is a real great feature.
So expanding this to dockers is a real good idea.

Agreed! I think it will speed up the workflow, because then we don't need to hide the docked windows and open each of them from a menu, the action list, or a keystroke which will also leave space for other actions.

Also it could provide a cleaner interface, less distracting from the docked windows, toolbars etc..

Bump.

I think this feature is currently one of the features that makes up for REAPER's imperfections.

Friendly bump, cheers.
