When using the keyboard exclusively for navigation, they way you minimize/maximize in all other programs is you press Alt + Spacebar, and it calls up that little logo above the file menu. In Firefox, it just selects the page you were browsing again.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
(target to achieve with keyboard) Click on the small Firefox/Bon Echo icon above the file menu. In all other programs, you can get to this menu by pressing Alt + Spacebar
Actual Results:  
1. Press Alt -> file menu gets highlighted (as it should)
2. Press spacebar -> essentially just undo's the alt you just pressed.

Expected Results:  
should "click" on the icon above the file menu and bring up a menu to minimize, maximize, move, close, etc.
