Yes, you've grasped the basic idea. Indicators are meant primarily as an 
indication of something, like a notification that you can or should 
respond to. Many applications should rather use a quicklist than an 
indicator.
I absolutely agree that Transmission should rather use Quicklists than 
indicator as its currently being used, simply because it's just a menu 
and doesn't indicate anything.
With regards to Skype, you'll have to use Skype/Microsofts bug tracker, 
I guess. :)
