Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: pidgin
In opposition to Bug #353112, I suggest that we actually exit Pidgin if
the user closes the Buddy List using the window buttons. This is the
common behavior in most application; plus it's very hard to recognize
that Pidgin is still running by only the arrow in the indicator applet.
To me, it seems counter-intuitive to only hide an application without
any clear visual evidence that it's still running if the user actually
used the the "close" button and thus an "exit" metaphor.
