The 1.4 buttons have the following meanings:
  [_] minimize. like the OS, window hides, but the operations continue
and the ui refreshes when you un-minimize
  [8] (the two window icon), detach. not exactly maximize, but the
same purpose, to get more screen for the UI
  [X] close, like the OS, window hides and operations stop.
I think the parallel is pretty close, as close most user interfaces.
