I do not think the Ubuntu Mozilla Team plans to add something like this and I know that upstream in Thunderbird we have no plans to add something like that.

I would find it useful to have a "Thunderbird Daemon" that has an icon in the icon bar at the top. This daemon would watch my email account for emails and use notify-send to inform me. This would be better than checking often or leaving the whole program GUI running.
