I really like the use of MATE with feature-rich desktop layouts. Here are some things that could be improved in Mutiny and similar layouts:

  • More ways to unmaximize windows: by double-clicking empty space in the Global Menu (since it acts as the title bar), and by dragging them while pressing Alt.

  • Add window buttons to windows with a child window, such as Synaptic (see this screenshot)

Windows like this can't be minimized.

I think this may depend on your window manager theme. I remember not seeing them when trying certain themes in the past, and I can see you’re not using the default theme.
