Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

As the name suggests, the notification area should be used for
notification, not as a permanent bloated icon panel. ( see
http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/desktop-notification-
area.html )

If you use OpenOffice often enough, you want it to load fast so you
might want to use the OpenOffice quickstart option. But why oh why this
implies that you also want an icon in your notification area ? There is
no intuitive link between the concept of quickstart and notification
area and this is a flagrant violation of the Gnome HIG.

Having an icon in the notification area should be another option and not
be related to the quickstart.

** Affects: openoffice.org (Ubuntu)
