Right click on the taskbar.  Choose "minimize all windows".  You're
there.

I can do it in a lot less.  HOLD down the menu, whip the mouse across
to the option, let go.  Arguing about fractions of a second is a
little ridiculous, don't you think?

Anyways, I wouldn't be surprised to see shareware apps that are
released to let you customize explorer to your utmost needs.

it was crucial to have a little icon for every possible command.
