Minimize to task bar on key

[A20_user]

Feature Request: Add key to go from Full Screen to minimized (hidden in task bar). Switching back to V.B. shall enter Full Screen again.

I'd like to second this and bump it. This is essential, not minor at all. While I DO NOT believe that VBox should minimize to tray (another feature request elsewhere that's had some input - if people want that, there are many applications that can provise this functionality) I do believe that it should be possible to switch back and forth between a full screen guest, and the host system without having to do windowed -> minimize -> restore -> windowed every single time.

Host Key + M seems smart, by the way.

Agreed this is really a feature I am missing. Host Key + M and a _ icon in the full screen toolbar should do it!

Would this be that hard to add? Is there another way of getting to minimize from a full-screen guest?

I was looking for this feature today... it would be very handy, especially when you have the mini toolbar disabled as I do.... that thing always gets in my way.

I think this is duplicte of #10105
