Explain the problem as you see it
Closing a dock is permanent, to open the node in the dock we need to do it again, manually.
Why is this a problem for you?
When using docks sometimes they are:
- not needed for some time
- are frequently needed for a second.
In both cases, it would be very useful to hide/collapse/minimize dock(s) with an easy way to show them again in the same format as before hiding.
Suggest a solution
Collapsible/minimizable docks with an indicator on the browser window’s edge like an arrow similar to iOS picture-in-picture window hidden outside the screen.
Open collapsed dock when:
- Pressed keyboard shortcut and/or
- Moved the mouse to the corresponding browser window’s edge
