2012-10-02 00:22:26 Dario Ruellan description What I expect: Selecting "quit" from the quicklist on the launcher, should always exit the app. What I get: Some applications that have a "hide" option, they close the main window but remain active on the background. Test case: Open Rhythmbox and play a music track. Right click on the launcher icon and select "quit". The music keeps playing. You must open Rthymbox and select "quit" from the "music" menu to effectively close it. I feel that "quit" on the launcher should be a shortcut of the "quit" option of the app, and not a mimic of the close button of the window. Background apps as Rhythmbox or Banshee should be terminated when using the launcher quicklist option.
