Okay, I have been playing around with a simple shrinkable Qt window that should work in a crossplatform manner without having the need to strip off the native window titlebar and create our own. Native titlebars are too useful to remove and might break third party extensions/tools.

Check out the images shrinkable_window.png and shrunk_window.png.

The python3 code to play with it, "testit.py", is also attached so if you have PySide6 in your python3 interpreter you should be able to play with it.

Perhaps we could add this for the Spellcheck Editor dialog and the Reports Dialog and not allow them to minimize?

Thoughts?
