The idea is intriguing.But perhaps all it needs is to make current
behavior of the minimze-button more clear; i.e. where the window
'physically' goes. Let the thumbnail of the current workspace slide in
briefly during the minimize-animation and highlight the thumbnailed
version of the minimized window with a subtile glow on the
workspace-thumbnail before it slides out. That would help a lot to make
things clear, I think.
