Window preview on taskbar

I like the way Vista shows miniature versions of application windows when I
hover over the taskbar button. But there is an issue with it. If I am typing
something and accidentally move the mouse pointer to the taskbar, the
miniature preview still appears and DOES NOT GO AWAY even when the typing
cursor moves and goes "under" the preview, effectively not allowing me to see
what I am typing.

In any case, when I am typing I am probably not looking at the mini-preview.
So I would like the preview to disappear as soon as I start typing, pretty
much like when the pointer disappears in XP (or in Office Suite. I don't
remember). May be it can reappear after 2-3 seconds of inactivity.
Reappearance is optional but being unable to see what I am typing is a real
bugger for me.
