After some searching around, I found that the culprit was, in fact, sawfish. The problem stems from the fact that the act of clicking on the button in the window list applet gives the focus to the panel. Since the window to be minimized is no longer in focus, it doesn't get minimized. The solution is to go to Desktop Preferences -> Advanced -> Sawfish -> Matched Windows. Click "Add...", under "Matchers" select "Name" and set it to "^gnome-panel$". Click the "Focus" tab under "Actions" and make sure "Never focus" is checked. Hit "OK", restart gnome-panel, and everything will be fine. The problem of the applet not resizing still hasn't been resolved. I've filed a bug report against it. Hopefully something will come up soon. -Alex
