Hi Gaëtan,
The plan is to kill off the idea that an indicator "owns" a window. At some point soon, people shouldn't need or want to think about showing & hiding open windows from an indicator; the point is strictly to control them and get quick feedback. not everything has been moved to this new system, but will be in the future. I believe "decreases usability" is a strange thing to say. Granted, this applet means people may have a few more steps to perform for certain functions that used to be notification applets' primary functions. However, the number of clicks to access a functioh is not an appropriate metric for usability. If it is, we should abandon the Applications menu and link the desktop to /usr/share/applications ;) The idea is consistency! If the primary interaction for every indicator is unpredictable, the system is less useful as a whole. Remember that a lot of users don't right click, either. Having a menu open on a left click (for many users, the only click!) opens up a lot of possibilities. People can feel more comfortable clicking in the indicator area and using things, knowing that every operation is LABELED. Nothing will happen that they don't expect.
