Title:
  Thunderbird with Firetray - menu in Unity top bar disappears

Status in Unity global menubar extension for Firefox and Thunderbird:
  Triaged
Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: thunderbird

  Running thunderbird with the Firetray plugin.  Clicking the close button in thunderbird does not kill thunderbird but sends it to the background, but Unity thinks the app is closed (the little arrow(s) don't show anymore).
  When opening again from Unity, it recognized the app as running, but the menus (File, Edit, etc) fail to show in the top bar when the mouse is brought up there.  The only way to get it back is to kill thunderbird and restart it.

  Disabling the firetray plugin, which doesn't work with Unity anyway,
  fixes this problem.  However, it would be great to have a tray icon by
  the session menu.
