Button to switch to mini-player!

How about a button to switch from the Main Player to Mini Player?
There is already a button on Mini-Player to switch back to Main Player.
Same thing in reverse?

Maybe as a fourth window control button?

- Perhaps not right next to them, but a small space (a button width..) to the left
- (or to the right if your buttons are on the left..)
- so it can be recognized as similar, but different..

As it's symbol (like X for close..) it could use "m" for mini-player!

Great idea! I'd also like to see an integrated button allowing Songbird to be able to be minimized to the system tray (there is an add-on for this, but it is not currently compatible with Songbird)

It would be great if this could actually be implemented some day :-)

How about simply double-clicking the player chrome at the top to switch to the Mini Player, just like double-clicking the Mini Player switches back to the Main Player?

I think this is basically the one thing keeping me from switching to Songbird as my primary player. Upvote!

Also, it looks like you can double-click the mini-play to get back to the full player. But not the other way around.
