Emesene indicator icon doesn't show/hide application window - usability regression

[Mike.lifeguard]

Binary package hint: emesene

This is the same as Bug #576762.

When the icon for Emesene was displayed in the notification area in Karmic and earlier, left-clicking it activated the default action (show/hide main window). In Lucid, this simply displays the menu (previously, a right-click performed this action). This is a usability regression because the default action requires a click, a point within the menu, and another click, where previously the same action required only one.

not ubuntu-related, you're running experimental code, and you'll have to live with it.

Sorry, I'm not running experimental code; this is the standard lucid package. As noted, this is intended behaviour, making this a design flaw rather than a bug.
