I normally minimize the browser to the dock when using other applications.  If I click on an url in another application, such as Eudora email, the browser window will not maximize as it should and has to be manually maximized.  Once the browser has been manually maximized the page will then load normally.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Click on any external url while browser window is minimized.
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
Browser window stayed minimized.  Had to manually maximize it first before page would load.

Expected Results:  
The software should’ve automatically maximized the browser window and then loaded the page when the external link was clicked on.
This looks to be the same issue as Bug 525759. As it was filed first, let's track the issue there.
