[Bug 783022] [NEW] bring window to front on left clicking the status icon

 

Public bug reported:

When left clicking on the status icon, a context menu pops up, which is
what you expect when you _right_ click it. (And which happens also if
you do.)

 I would expect a left click to:
 + bring the window to the front if it's already shown
 + show the window if it's hidden
 + hide the window if its shown and in the foreground
like other programs (e.g. Amarok) do it.

This feels much more natural and if would make the icon in the
notification area of gnome (e.g.) much more usable for me and for many
others. Therefore I would recommend changing the behaviour to the above
explained.
