The current design is justified by the motivation to move the window
control buttons to the top left.
Apparently, the usability tests for 11.04 design showed that the
window controls are better on the top left, so they moved the Ubuntu
button out of that location.
Your proposal, although it would p

Really, I don't agree with hidding window controls. It's really ***not***

With all due respect, that won't be an issue anymore, since the Ubuntu

Yes. But really, all the people new to Ubuntu 11.04 that I have seen tries
to reveal the launcher pointing to the ubuntu button, rather than trying to
"push" the left side, even if the animation of the launcher suggests that.
For us, regular users of Ubuntu, it's obvious. For new users, we can not

So, what do you think about this idea?
I'm really concerned about how an user new to Ubuntu will react when he
wants to invoke the launcher when a window is maximized with the current
design.

Shouldn't the Dash only use the close and maximize buttons?
IMHO the maximize button should invoke both resizing actions,
eliminating the need for the minimize button (since the Dash cannot be

extra movement, and is also a bi

I really like the blur behind the new dash in Oneiric. Will this be enaibled
behind the launcher and the dash decoration (the area around the dash)?
These are not blurred right now and the result looks rather jarring. See for
