Hello! So, to give a developer answer to all that is going on here. First, the double dock icon thing. As has been said, we cannot reproduce this ourselves, and if we can't reproduce the bug, we can't endeavor to fix it. We can make guesses at what might cause it, and what might fix it, but they are just that, guesses. Things like multiple launches or multiple copies are possibilities.
Second, uninstalling. Growl, like most any other .app application, can simply be drug to the trash for a simple removal. For deleting all settings and associated data, like any sandboxed app store application, you can delete it via launchpad, and that will remove our "container" where all our data is stored along with the app itself (note that this will remove ALL registered apps, settings, and notification history) Third, the start at login thing. We are sandboxed, and we use the officially supported method for programmatically starting our app at login under sandboxing. Sandboxing does not allow access to the methods that would add us to the "Start at Login" list in System Preferences, and that will not be changing likely, as those API's were horribly insecure. We didn't "invent" anything, these are Apple's approved and documented methods for sandboxed apps.
