Bug Description
Binary package hint: indicator-applet
When Rhythmbox appeared in the Notification area and not the indicator applet you could toggle the visibility of Rhythmbox by clicking on the icon. In Lucid the icon is now in the indicator applet and to show Rhythmbox you need to click on the icon then select Show Rhythmbox.
Possible solutions are:
1. Double click icon to toggle Rhythmbox display
2. Make icon click toggle Rhythmbox display and right-click to bring up current click menu. This would require adding an icon like the line at the start of the notification area where you could right click on to bring up the applet menu (remove, move etc.)
affects: | indicator-applet (Ubuntu) → indicator-application (Ubuntu) |

Thank you for your bug report, the purpose of the new design was to have all those icons looking and behaving in a consistent way, right click menus are not discoverable by users and having some icons reacting on left or right click confuse a lot of users. Could you explain your usecase? Do you need to open the UI often? What do you need there which is not in the menu directly?
