+1 for Alex. Before trying to change the default tray icon behavior, we
must try not to lose the minimize-to-tray feature *by default*. That
could be considered as a regression. Also, changing the default setting
isn't obvious for all users.

"Additionally, the HIG states that if it does anything other than
opening a window, it should be an applet, rather than showing up as if
it was a notification icon."

Pidgin (formerly Gaim) had an applet some time ago, but was replaced by
the minimize-to-tray feature, AFAIK.

Pidgin should default to "Show system tray icon:  On unread messages"
