Please do NOT introduce preferences or plugins or whatnot for just plain
wrong behaviour. This has to be fixed, because it is a bug and that's
all. If Rhythmbox gets a preference for this kind of behaviour, then
every program should have one. Or why shouldn't they? Either make RB
behave like the other programs or make the other programs behave like
RB. Right now on Ubuntu there is this weird mix between OS X-like
application-based behaviour where closing the app's window does not end
the program and the Windows-like window-based opposite.

Please, read this article by Joel Spolsky about introducing preferences,
which fits in here perfectly:
