How do I affect the order of ALT-Tab?

When I minimize a window, I expect it to go to the end of the list, and normally it does. But sometimes I press ALT-Tab expecting to switch to the windows under the current one, but the window I just minimized pops back up instead.

This is extremely annoying. I don't want to hold it down and inspect the icons and have to keep pressing tab until I get the right one. I want it to work consistently and reliably for all windows so I can keep my mind focused on the work I'm doing.
 
Is there anyway to force minimized applications to go to the end of the ALT-Tab list?
