Do you guys need full access to the windows, even when they are

just identify how many windows an app has? If it's the latter, it has
a
chance of being done by Apple, but it also seems to me like you could
simply
keep track yourself of the open windows, and when the app is hidden,
assume
the open windows are the same. Then if the user wants to bring one of
those
windows to the front, unhide the app, re-query it to get the windows
again
(and match things up again, which shouldn't be too hard), and bring the
relevant window to the front.
Personnaly, it would be sufficient to have their titles. I don't do
anything to the windows if the app is hidden, I just display the
windows list. Then the user can choose one of the windows to bring it
front. But as you stated I can work that issue.
Thanks
