This only affects applications which use the system tray as an alternative to minimising *and* don't check that there actually is a system tray to use. This is nothing like all applications. >What if the Window manager sent the window into another zone (a >background app zone, if you will) when the user closed the main window >for an app that wanted to run in the background rather than exit? As Thomas said, this has nothing to do with the window manager. The window manager sends the WM_DELETE message to the application when the user presses on the Close button, at that point it's the applications choice of what to do. If the application decides that the right thing to do is to hide the window and attempt to show an icon in the non-existent system tray, then that application is buggy. Clearly Liferea in the Moblin store should be patched so that it doesn't attempt to use the system tray, because we don't have one.
