Just an addition to  the above: I am on linux right now, but this bug is
actually for windows.

Comment 2

[Daniel Wang]

component should be either Skinability (allow theme designers
to design turbo mode icon) or UI Design (allow users to customize
the icon, which is a feature bloat, I think).
> Skinability

winamp lets you do this, i'd hope trudelle would agree with me when i say that
letting the user pick the tray icon is really bloatful and silly. (the correct
solution is probably no tray icon since the tray is a system notification area,
and a remain resident icon really doesn't belong.) As for letting skins pick it,
there's a general bug for letting skins specify icons, so this should probably
be a dupe of that if you want to go that route.

reporter: in the future, please don't split off bugs the way you did, if
bugzilla helper/usermode=simple is just going to make your report less useful
(and it clearly did here) then you should either use advanced mode and write a
clear report, or find someone who can actually find a reasonable way to use
helper/simple to do it.

I would recommend this be resolved as wontfix or be changed to "Make Quick Lauch
Skinable"

Comment 5

[Thomas]

is this really a serious problem?
I agree with Henrik "I would recommend this be resolved as wontfix"

Comment 6

[Thomas]

Is anyone except Ajay Gautam really interested in this feature?
Ajay are you still interested?

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
