Not that you're attitude makes me want to help you, but if you want Pidgin (which isn't part of GNOME btw) to behave the way you think it should. Simply go to: Tools -> Preferences -> System Tray Icon and change it to "Always." No need to install or un-install any thing.
Rhythmbox minimizes to tray correctly for me with the plugin enabled. You can question the usefulness or readiness of the new applet, but the argument that it "breaks standard GNOME behavior" is just simply un- true. Applications which permanently sit in the notification area not following standard GNOME behavior. >From the GNOME Human Interface Guidline [1]: "The utility of the notification area decreases rapidly when more than about four icons are always present. For this reason, icons that appear only temporarily in response to events are preferable."
