In order to display anything, it needs to be placed in a window. Your code 
above is correct in that it doesn't send -close to any status bar items, but it 
*does* send -close to the invisible window that constrains them. That's why 
they disappear.

You'll probably want to do some more careful checking of the windows prior to 
sending them -close. Perhaps check the class of their window controller or 
their delegate.
