Hm, I think the request is pretty much limited to the program bbkeys, if
I'm not mistaken.  I, too, would like to see bbkeys with a non-gui mode,
such that it just runs happily in the background and handles the hotkey
requests.  I think this is why the request for hiding iconified programs
was made, because some programs we just don't want to have guis forced
on us.  As far as I'm concerned, I've just iconfied it and don't use the
Icons submenu, so bbkeys is all but hidden.  I can definitely understand
the annoyance, though.

Take care,
