Nope, in 3 to 6 (no, I'm not mentioning 24 or 6 to 4 :) it maximized but didn't restore.

Minimized and restored. Came up really handy sometimes when you wanted just to move the foremost window out of sight and restore it immediately - it was far faster than the mouse, you didn't have to go fishing for the caption bar.
Are you saying we can have this back? Ummmm... then you may know something of the money I lost because of Milosevich... I mean, if you can restore a feature which vanished three versions ago, this should be trivial, right? :)
