E16 includes the checkbox "Include iconified windows in focus list" and has had an option for this forever.

Additionally, in E16 the iconbox is optional. If you turn it off, too, then this means is that "iconified" is "completely invisible" until you open the desktop window list (which I find useful for drastically removing distractions).
