Thank you for testing the 'lock' issue on Windows. I'll report it later. That behavior can be a bug or feature, but I'll report it as an inconsistent behavior on Windows/Linux.

I see some visual difference in my and your Lazarus IDE - in my case it is used a docked IDE (with sparta packages). BTW, I cannot imagine one could live widthout a docked IDE.
I used docked IDE before, I was happy with it. But later I found without docking is 'better'. Because I can manage layout freely.
For example I usually do multitasks on my computer. I may browsing the web and found some interesting programming topic so I start my Lazarus to do as the article said. I can do '
peeking' easily if you do not use docked IDE.
I understand the undocked IDE can be messy and I won't recommend it to common users. But if you're an experienced user and
- Has a large monitor (mine is 24")
- Do multitask a lot
- Turn on 'single button in taskbar'
- Make use the Desktop feature (menu > Tools > Desktop)
Anyone that satisfied the 4 points above may be happy to use Lazarus undocked. Try it maybe you will agree with me too.
