Eeeeek... That's one hell of an ugly hack to get make the 'quit' action from 
the systray work without closing the main window...

Isn't there a better way to use KSystemTray? The quit option from the default 
menu implementation in KSysTray closes the main window. Close being 
destructive this quits the app, but it's a bit ugly if you ask me. For Kopete 
it has the annoying side effect that we can't use the closeQuery of the 
window to simply hide into the system tray. And closing the main window 
manually shouldn't quit Kopete, nobody would expect that from an app that 
mostly lives in the systray...

I'd almost say that's a bug in ksystemtray, which should call kapp->quit() 
instead for the quit action. Or am I missing a point here?
