When the application is closed to the taskbar, the dock icon shouldn't be displayed. For some OSes/Display Managers it is.

Confirmed working as intended:

  • Windows
  • XFCE

Confirmed not working:

  • OS X
  • Unity

Food for though: Simply pinning the application to the dock and not using the systray icon seems to be a more encouraged approach by most modern desktop environments. Perhaps a reasonable "solution" would be to change the default to prevent using a systray icon and recommending this approach instead. Since the systray icon serves only to re-open the application it doesn't really offer any benefit over using it from the dock.

This is what we ended up doing, closing.
