Or do absolutely nothing when the single window is already focused. Is
that consistency? Just a thought....

There is no complexity. Is simple and doesn't breaks users expectation:

1. Focus window
2. Spread, if more than one window
3. Minimize all windows

Just that simple.

Well, I've already written a lot about this in bug #733349, there is
nothing new to say.
