It's quite easy to see how this wrecks Rhythmbox if you'll humor me.

Open Rhythmbox, Edit/Plugins, select "Minimize to Tray" (grits teeth),
exit that menu, and then click the X button (close), the plug in is
designed to send it to the notification area instead of to close it,
therefore this "Message Indicator" is causing a bug with Rhythmbox.

Also, if you close Pidgin, it won't just automatically go tuck itself
into the "Message Indicator", it'll close, and you have to log back into
all your chat services.

This is most of what I meant "Usability disaster".

Closing  or removing indicator-applet does not restore correct GNOME behavior

Status in Indicator Applet: New
Status in “indicator-applet” source package in Ubuntu: Incomplete

Bug description:
If I remove indicator-applet from the panel or uninstall it entirely, programs 
that are supposed to have an icon in the system tray simply close.

I find the behavior of the applet clunky and incorrect, and think that really 
there should be a setting somewhere that lets you disable it.
