Some aspects of the new Neocom are good - others are not.

When you minimized windows with the old Neocom you got small little bars at the bottom of your screen containing the caption of the window. So it was easy to restore a specific window.

With the new Neocom many minimized windows only have the "i" (info) icon that appears in the Neocom bar. You need to move the mouse cursor over each "i" icon to get a tooltip showing the caption of the corresponding window. This is very annoying.

One solution for this problem would be that each and every window gets a specific icon, when the window is being minimized.

Examples:
Scanner windows - using the same symbol like the ship control panel
Drone window - use the icon of any drone
Container windows - use the icon of the corresponding container type
