Currently when I move the main window of Gimp (under WinXP) then the two small windows at the side "Toolbox" and "Layer,Channel..." stay at their places on the desktop.
Is there a way to define them as "docked". In other words: Whenever the main window is moved they should be moved as well.

Similarly when I minimize the main window the sub-windows remain visible. Is there a settings which (automatically) minimizes all windows when I minimize the "main" window?

Ok, thank you.

When will be v2.8 (=with single-window-mode) roughly released?

Regarding the minimization bug (in WinXP): Is there already a bugzilla ticket opened ?

No, not in GIMP 2.6, but with the single-window mode in 2.8 you'll be able to get that behaviour.

There is code in GIMP that does that, but it doesn't work 100% always on Windows unfortunately.
