What you want is for the Iconify command to move the window to the tail of
the window list (from the head). This is probably doable now using some
tricky script, but I don't think it is easy.
The problem is that the Iconify command already transferes the focus, i.e.
changes this list, but not in the way you want. A solution may be to add
a global or Style option, like IconifyBringsToEnd or similar.
Another solution is to add IconifiedAtEnd option to WindowList.
Maybe someone else can suggest other solutions that don't require changes
to the code.

WindowList only works with desks now. This is probably due to the fact
that (non-sticky) windows may occupy several pages, but only one desk.
But there is nothing that prevents adding CurrentPage option to WindowList.
If you want more "that other GUI" feel, don't use pages, use desktops of
one page only (DesktopSize 1x1) and then use "WindowList CurrentDesk".
