Public bug reported:
Using indicator applet for opening the newest message requires 2 clicks:
1 on the indicator applet, and 1 on the name of the person sending the
message. I do not want to look for who sent me the message when there is
something new. I want to click indicator applet and be brought to the
new message immediately, without menu navigation.
I recommend that indicator applet immediately focus the new event when
clicked, as long as there are events from only one program. This would
emulate a good notification icon for pidgin and email clients, pidgin
showing the new conversation window when indicator applet is clicked
with new pidgin events, and email client showing the new message when
clicked.
What happens:
When clicked with new events, indicator applet presents me a menu which clearly
has only one (interesting) option to choose from, the new message.
What should happen:
When clicked with new events, indicator applet should immediately bring me to
the new event without forcing useless menu traversal. Conditionally this could
be done only when there are new events for only a single application.
