Make min/max behavior local to the window owning the stack none

1. Detach the 'Outline' view.
2. Maximize the part stack of the 'Package Explorer'.
3. The detached window for the 'Outline' view goes away!

Good one...they don't really go away, they minimize to the trim.

The processing gathers up all the stacks for the window and minimizes them, looks like it's a bit too inclusive.
Comment 2 Remy Suen CLA 2011-04-29 08:05:10 EDT
This is still broken.

This not only fixes the reported scenario but also allows 'local' min/max behavior in detached windows.

The only funky behavior is that you are 'allowed' to minimize *all* the stacks. If you do you get an empty presentation area...if you don't like that state then restore one of the stacks.
