Suggestion: move window min/max/close buttons on Linux

Answered

In the screenshot below, I've marked sections in red which have a lot of empty space.  This takes up space on a small monitor like a laptop.

In yellow, I've marked an area which might be a better location for the window minimize/maximize/close buttons.

To see what I mean, take a look at Firefox.  The min/max/close buttons are on the same line as the browser tabs.  This uses screen real estate efficiently.

This is on Ubuntu 21.10.

Perhaps JetBrains could consider this for a future version?
