@ mac_v:  It appears as if you're basing your judgement on the amount of
clicks it takes to perform actions.  The amount of time it *really*
takes to make 4 clicks (making the assumption that you have to move the
mouse between each click), is no more than like 4 seconds.

What makes these things "difficult", is that most of the time people
aren't staring at their taskbar tray, and any icon that pops up goes
unnoticed (most of the time).  Making this how MPT has it , is something
to try out, and get used to.  I can't imagine you knew how to run ubuntu
the first day you used it.  Take the time to get used to the changes,
and adapt yourself to it, as Ubuntu thankfully makes this easy.

In General: I really think that users should let the development teams
run away with their ideas, because a ton of people really want to see
changes to their OS that make it better (all in different ways), and the
people that complain about 2 vs 4 clicks or how "intrusive" these things
are, really need to step back a bit.  Are you being intruded when your
e-mail program notifies you in a persistent window that new mail is
ready (and maybe even bring up the program window unfocused)?  Are you
being intruded when your IM client pops up a window when someone new
IM's you?  I bet you don't think so.

Adapt to the changes, as you would if you were trying out a different
OS, or a new version of some software you use.  It's really not that
difficult.
