Hiroyuki,

That's excellent news - thank you. And thank you for *all* your efforts, 
by the way.

What would also be really nice would be that if the option is turned on, 
when (for example) the 'Close' button is clicked (the X at the top right 
of the toolbar in my case), the application would not close, but would 
minimize to the tray instead.

As an example of what I mean, see how transmission-gtk behaves. That's 
ideal, IMHO.

Thanks again,
Walter
