I would love to have the thing iconify itself, the problem is that anything
that you put on the Workbench screen will keep the Workbench from closing.
What would be more useful would be a program that, when run loads the real
program, unless the real program is loaded, in which case it tells the real
program to open its windows and start talking.  

Kind of like Commodities is now, but doesn't get the "I don't own an IBM
any more, I own an Amiga!  What do I need with Hot Keys?!?" complaint.

'Course, the above can be done now, so you don't need to modify the machine
any to do it.  Neat, huh?
