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 :)
