How about something like this?...
tell application "System Events"
tell process "Dock"
set dockTrashIcon to button "Trash"
end tell
end tell
tell application "System Events" to click the dockTrashIcon

If you have the new UI scripting installed you can use something like:
tell application "System Events"
tell process "Dock"
click button "the name of my window minimized in the Dock"

Ya know, since "tell application System Events" seems to be required
for all of the new facilities, it seems to me that it would be easier
if all we had to do was make a call like:
tell UI process "Dock"
click button "so 'n so"
end
where the built-in 'UI process' (or whatever) would save the double
tell (at least superficially). This could also mean that the
underlying mechanism could change to suit low level implementation
things that we might not necessarily be concerned with.
