Mac Windowed mode isn't the same as on PCs

As per this thread: http://www.blitzbasic.com/Community/posts.php?topic=74641 there is inconsistent behavior between Mac and PC windowed mode...

PC shows a minimise icon and will trigger an APP_SUSPEND event.

However, Mac doesn't show a minimise icon. I can added one by modifiying the following line (236) in glgraphics.macos.m: 

style=NSTitledWindowMask|NSClosableWindowMask


to
style=NSTitledWindowMask|NSClosableWindowMask|NSMiniaturizableWindowMask


But it still won't trigger APP_SUSPEND. I can make it trigger suspend/resume by adding this code after windowShouldClose on line 37: 

-(void) windowDidMiniaturize:(NSNotification *) note {
	bbSystemEmitEvent( BBEVENT_APPSUSPEND,&bbNullObject,0,0,0,0,&bbNullObject );
}
-(void) windowDidDeminiaturize:(NSNotification *) note {
	bbSystemEmitEvent( BBEVENT_APPRESUME,&bbNullObject,0,0,0,0,&bbNullObject );
}


To avoid having to make these changes every time I install a new version of BlitzMax, I'd like to make a request that this code is added to the standard version please. Thanks in advance.

By the way, AppSuspended() is not firing any event in Linux.
