Plus, a tray (or app-indicator) icon: c.) Has no standard behaviour: the menu item that would restore the window could be located anywhere in the menu d.) Is a tiny icon without label or tooltip By standardizing around a panel applet with dock-like behaviour, we will only need application indicators for regular applications that want to list a few quick actions in a menu, and obviously for system services. The Messaging Menu wouldn't have to be a place where applications live either. Evolution happily uses both the window list and the Messaging Menu. So, Empathy could show two windows in its entry on the dock: the contact list and the conversations window. -- Remco _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : ayatana@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
