Hi!

Since I have upgraded to Lucid, one of the most annoying problems is the
indicator applet behaviour. Is of my understanding that you/we are
changing from the previous RedHat's notification area applet to
Canonical's one, which will bring some problems during the transition.

Anyway, actions that before cost only one click, now costs several
clicks with the new indicator (as stated in https://bugs.launchpad.net
/indicator-applet/+bug/550809). For instance, Rythmnbox is affected or,
even WORST, "files dialog" (like moving files) can NO longer be hidden
to the tray. Moreover, its dialog is clearly confusing as pointed by
Dylan McCall.

So, I do suggest:

left click --> show/hide window (to the the tray) and/or regular action
right click --> application menu

Optionally:

double left click --> only show/hide window (to the the tray)
left click --> only regular action
middle wheel --> extra functionallity (volume control on volume app or 
rythmnbox app, browse calendar)

The "context menu" of the indicator applet itself should be moved to the
separation bar and it should contain an option dialog.

Thank you for your effort.
