Comment (by leavengood):

 I experimented and looked at the Deskbar code and what it does is minimize
 all windows in a team when you click the application while holding CTRL
 and SHIFT, and brings them all to the front if you click with just CTRL. I
 said it in that seemingly backwards order because you can't notice the
 latter as much as when you do the former first. In fact the latter doesn't
 really do anything if no windows are minimized (which could be considered
 a bug, I don't know.)

 To make it a bit more confusing, if you use CTRL-click in the window menu,
 it always hides that window. But I guess in that case it always brings to
 front on a normal click, so it doesn't make sense to also bring to front
 on a CTRL-click. Maybe it should hide on a SHIFT-click instead of CTRL-
 click.

 Anyhow, the conclusion is the Workspaces modifiers do indeed match the
 Deskbar to some extent, at least at the application level.
