This may also encourage more abuse: i.e. not setting the status to hidden, 
ever. Remember that we're often dealing with apps who want to forego being 
shown in the taskbar (presumably to save space). Effectively, this means that 
apps will set their status to always be active, leading to more clutter in the 
panel.
