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. :)

Transmission is more of a background service (or at least for a lot of people that seed) , so it shouldn't be in the launcher all the time (if it's not pinned) . It could be more "indicating" , but that's another topic :)
