I already posted this idea to this forum, but it doesn't show; so here's another try.
For me a big hassle is still to navigate through open windows (OS 9 and OS X). The windows menu or the dock aren't very handy for this.
I think an easy solution for this would be the option to navigate through open windows using the window title-bar. You can already command-click on the title of a window to see the path of that window, an option which I use rarely.
It should be possible to just click on the title in the window title-bar, and it shows a list of open windows in the current application. Select the window you want at the front and it switches. Apple could even add an option-click possibility to show a list of all open windows, even of the other open applications. Very intuitive and very handy.
Putting tabs in the window title-bar for each open window could also be an option (like tabbed browsing), but, I think, will make the windows title-bar very cluttered and harder to understand for novices. Also the option to show all windows in all open applications is not really possible.
