I do exactly the same in MyAeS, I notice some trouble with some softwares as you
(I don't know for terradesk (this software can be correct (as his default with
iconification managment!))). I suppose most AES don't support this, but I think
it's for a time correctly documented, and I think something usefull, so I not
plane changing it.
