I use Fluid <http://fluidapp.com/> to make web apps look like Mac apps. The
paid version of Fluid allows you to pin the apps to the status bar.

To activate a pinned app, I need to click on it in the status bar. I'd like to be able to activate it from Quicksilver, but the "Open" action doesn't
work on these types of apps. Is there any way to do this?

I just tried it and I don’t think so. Not by selecting the application and hitting “Open” anyway.

This isn’t specific to Fluid apps. If you run Viscosity, Dropbox, CloudApp, or anything else that lives in the status bar, running Open on the application isn’t the same as clicking that icon.

You’d probably have to create an AppleScript that makes System Events click on the thing. Or, I see an option in Fluid to assign a global shortcut to an app. I haven’t tried that because I hate global shortcuts, but I assume it will work for an app assigned to the status bar.
