All forms must follow the Application.handle state, so once mainform
minimized, all other forms must follow. I see.

IMO it's a bad idea to minimize forms together with the main form. Better the application should minimize, automatically hiding all owned forms.

The placement of minimized forms varies across window managers. Win32 (or Delphi?) puts them onto the bottom of the screen, so that every window can be restored from there. This behaviour may be related to the implementation of MDI windows, where minimized MDI childs reside on the bottom of the MDI window. Other window managers require a window menu to restore minimized form. In no case forms should become part of the task bar, this one is reserved for tasks (applications) - as the name says.
