Google being evil: removing close minimize restore button from IE9 but not from Chrome?

I’ve just come across something that looks weird.  When I open Google mail in IE9, and hit Alt+Space to minimize it, I find that the menu bar has been interfered with, and the close, minimize and restore options are not there.  Do the same on any other site and it’s fine.  Do the same in Chrome, on Google mail, and it’s fine.

I can only suppose that Google’s developers, knowing that busy people use keyboard shortcuts, have decided deliberately to harass Internet Explorer users by disabling it, to try to force them to use Chrome.  Nasty.

There’s probably some way you can override this, but a Google search brought up nothing.

Does this just happen to me?
