Does the KDE version extend the API to be capable of supporting a "left-click toggles main window visibility, right-click displays the context menu" paradigm? I love the idea of having the tray process handle the tray icons and provide consistent display and behaviour rather than using XEmbed, but I've gone as far as completely avoiding applications which offer only AppIndicator-based tray icons because I refuse to double the number of clicks and throw in some precision mouse movement in order to show/hide an application's main window. (Especially if I just want to peek at its status without having said status visible during times when I'm vulnerable to distraction.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get 100% visibility into Java/.NET code with AppDynamics Lite!
