We already have this I think, but it must be done via the command-line. It 
doesn't actually keep the application "running" but starts a new instance 
when you click the tray icon.

ksystraycmd --startonshow --keeprunning konqueror.

It has some problems, eg the icon changes when the application isn't running.

I suggested adding this to the kwin menu a long time ago but nobody took.
