I don't think this is a good idea at all. I don't see why some applications should be special, and I don't see why users should have to guess which ones stay running when you close the window and which ones don't. If you want rhythmbox to keep running, just don't close the window. If you find it annoying to have the window open, that's a window management problem that should be solved by your window manager. _______________________________________________ rhythmbox-devel mailing list rhythmbox-devel@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/rhythmbox-devel
