** Description changed:

- With the latest version from PPA, Synapse is always in Unity's launcher.
- It shouldn't be. I can also note that launching it from the launcher
- doesn't focus it, so it doesn't respond to keypress, so I need to click
- it to do anything.
+ Description of bug:
+ With the latest version from PPA, Synapse is always in Unity's launcher. It 
shouldn't be.
+ This also applies to Gwibber as far as I can tell: I have Gwibber-services 
running on logon. Gwibber does not however show up in launcher until I start 
it, either from menu or from the notification area. Having it in launcher makes 
sense when a Gwibber window is active, but after I X it away, it still remains 
in the launcher.
+ It has also been said that bzr-gtk suffers from this.
+ 
+ -----
+ 
+ Solution shamelessly copied from comment #13:
+ The solution is to ensure that programs are properly marking the 
AppIndicatorCategory for their indicators. BAMF will only expose indicators 
which are of type APP_INDICATOR_CATEGORY_APPLICATION_STATUS. This is what 
should be used for applications such as Rhythbox, Banshee, Tomboy (basically 
anything that may throw up a sustained window or "minimize" to its indicator). 
Projects like Synapse should use APP_INDICATOR_CATEGORY_OTHER
+ 
+ In Synapse this has been fixed in this revision:

  For Unity:
  The problem is that Unity doesn't respect the Gtk.Window.skip_taskbar_hint 
(TRUE).
  I need a way to tell Unity to not show my application under the task list.
  But I also think that this needs to be fixed in the Unity dock.
