Description Johannes Krottmayer 2022-04-12 06:40:39 UTC
Add an option in the settings from Amarok, to close the application completely  when an user close the main window from Amarok and don't stay in System Tray.

It,s IMHO a bad design when an user space application don't close itself completely when an user click the close button (raise the Xorg destroy window event). Amarok is NOT a required system service.

There already is an option Settings -> Configure Amarok ... -> General -> Show tray icon

Also nothing in my systray is a required system service and I think it's a valid choice to be shown state there or easily interact with an application that is hidden/on another desktop/whatever.
