In my opinion it would be better to minimise only a window.
Download manager or mail are tasks running on the backgound. I don't think
minimizing navigator composer and the adress book in the system tray is a good
idea since they are not backgound tasks. A good thing would be a preference menu
like the new windows one:

Minimize component: (list with: Navigator,Mail,Download manager...)
( ) to taskbar
( ) to system tray

I believe that this is, in fact, a duplicate of bug 183323. I'm going to close
this and post a comment in there with the suggestion from Uther. Again, if you
disagree please reopen.
