Comment (by leavengood):

 OK, so I fixed the other bug I found while testing this, and now I have a
 fix for this. But it turns out to have marginal utility. It really can
 only be used to minimize a window in another workspace.

 Because Ctrl-Click activates the window, and activating a window will
 always switch to that workspace (which makes sense). And Opt-Click will
 move the window to the back, but that is ignored on workspaces which are
 not the current one, which I think makes sense too.

 So maybe being able to minimize a window in another workspace with Ctrl-
 Shift-Click is useful enough to commit my fix? I'm not really sure which
 is why I'm asking.
