Public bug reported:

In Ubuntu 17.10, when I right click on an application in the dock,
rather than seeing a list of all my windows for that application in the
menu that pops up, that list has now been relegated to an "All Windows"
submenu.

This is pointless and stupid. It adds two extra actions -- moving the
mouse to the "All Windows" menu item and clicking on it -- every time I
want to switch to a different application window using the dock. I can't
see any justification for this change whatsoever. Please bring back the
old behavior.

(Also, the "All Windows" submenu now shows pictures of windows as well
as window titles. The presence of those pictures should be configurable
(at least). I don't need to see pictures of my windows, the titles were
always sufficient, took up less space, and were quicker to parse and
navigate than pictures are.)
