Dash to Dock v63 (released on Apr 02 2018) added the new click action
“minimize-or-previews”. IMHO, this is by far the most user-friendly
click action of all supported ones. Unfortunately, this didn't become
the default in Ubuntu 18.10. Currently, the file

    /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/10_ubuntu-dock.gschema.override

contains the setting

    click-action='previews'

(The click action 'previews' was introduced in Dash to Dock v60.)

I propose to replace the above line with

    click-action='minimize-or-previews'

I am convinced that this change would satisfy the great majority of
Ubuntu users.

Title:
  Dock - Clicking icon doesn't minimize

Status in gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have open Firefox, it is maximized. Clicking on it's icon in the
  Dock does nothing, I expect it would minimize Firefox. Unity, KDE and
  Windows behave in this manor.

  Window doesn't have to be maximized to show this behavior, clicking
  the icon in the Dock will bring up a selection popup if there are
  multiple instances of that application open, but if there is only one
  it does nothing.

  Tested with Gnome Terminal, Firefox, Chromium, Files, VLC, Terminator,
  all behave the same.
