When we run long-running tasks in EA (such as a large XML export - some of which can take tens of minutes to hours) the screen locks up because there is no mechanism to minimize EA during the run.
Can we please have a Minimize button on the appropriate dialog, which will minimize the whole of EA.
An example of what I mean can be seen on the Vice Versa Pro product from TGRMN (Another Aussie company - and an excellent product). Once I start the synchronization going, I can press the minimize button on the active window and VVP will minimize until the synchronization is completed.

If you press [Windows] + D it should minimize all applications (including EA, even with model dialogs open)

Yes, but it pops back up again!

That's weird, it doesn't pop back up on my machine when trying an xmi export.
Maybe it's only on some processes, where the GUI refreshes and forces EA back to the foreground?
I think some of the dialogs tend to do this.
