Have arts add such a line to the mcopclass files, and I'll be glad to 
re-add the part of the UI that displayed the descriptions.  Right now the 
descriptions simply don't exist anywhere to display.

Can you commit this yourself, since you seem to know which icon is 
preferred.  Thanks

skin? *cough, cough*

See my comments in that thread.  The styleguide, in that section, only 
addresses document-centered apps, and the distinction between close and 
quit made there makes absolutely no sense in the context of noatun.  I 
would suggest that in non-document apps, like noatun or ksirc, Close 
doesn't belong in a controller window, and Quit should quit the app like 
the standard says.

Furthermore, the styleguide certainly does Not say that applications 
should act differently because they have an optional systray icon, that I 
saw.

Don't think of a bug as a problem.  Think of it as a call to action.
