I have the same behaviour (with RB 0.9.1), and frankly it drives me nuts but this probably because of how I am used to using Rhythmbox. Normally I put the Rhythmbox with a reasonable size in the middle of my screen, set it to Play and hide it. Sometimes I recall the window to see what's happening and playing, but this is because of the balloons not necessary anymore. I also recall it to give new commands, manage what is playing of manage the database. So I do frequent recalls and hides, which now doesn't work very well because a hide requires two clicks on the trayicon and recalling leads to Rhythmbox appearing on a random position, not the previous. I'd like to compare the way this works with Gossip, which I also use a lot and aims to grow into a (IM) service as well. Gossip is recallable with one click on the tray icon, and I can dismiss it with a single Escape press or click on the tray icon. The X button is still Close which is fine with me because that always has been Close. Since there is a keyboard way (Esc) and mouse way (trayicon click) I do not need Close to minimize at all. I'd prefer the 3 title-bar-buttons to keep doing as they always have done, but still have an easy way to recall and hide RB by keyboard and by mouse. I really applaud trying out different ways of doing UI stuff to get a feel on what feels right (for me know as "the Gossip development way", which IMO leads to great results). Keep up the good work!
