I too think this is a vital feature. MinimizeToTray does the job to a degree but at present (Thunderbird 2.0) it does not work, and is inconsistent across Firefox/Thunderbird/Sunbird. Perhaps this feature should be integrated into the backend. I certainly see usage of this for Calendaring and Email, less so for web browsing.

If implemented wholesale it should allow for faster startup of the application, but reduced memory footprint when minimised to the tray.
