Bug Description

An OSX-style zoom/fade effect on click of an app would be nice.

Hi, I'm not a OSX user myself so I don't really understand what you requested. It's something concerning the icon itself or the starting window?

The icon expands and fades out when clicked.

I see... well, I'll assign the UX team and see what they think. In any case, this is a L+1 item, but thanks for the suggestion :)

I'm +1. Would be a nice affect to show that the menu didn't just close, but an app is also being launched.

This could also be orchestrated with the wm. We wouldn't necessarily want to double up on opening animations, especially if we get the wm to zoom the windows from the app icon.
