No, we don't really plan to make this optional. We think adding 
"micro-options" like this makes the app cluttered and reduces usability. 
Instead, we try to choose something that works well for us and the majority 
of our users.

In this case, we can discuss what the best behavior for the systray icon is. 
If others agree with your opinion, we might possibly change it.

Asking the mailing list: What's everyone's opinion regarding the systray icon?
