I would not have much use for this, since if a window is obscured (like
the Tree window, for example), I can (a) right-click on the appropriate
panel provided by the window manager to raise it or (b) give the Tree
icon in the Scid main window a double click (the first removes it,
the second opens it again). I also like having a way of closing a Scid
window from the main window toolbar, but I guess not everyone likes this.

Cheers,
Shane
