What is the tray icon supposed to do on left click? Currently it seems 
to do nothing.
I'd suggest to choose (by a pref) a default action from the menu and 
execute it on left-click. It would be nice if the default action was 
bold in the menu then.
Another useful behavior would be to launch the component that was last 
launched from this menu. ie you select browser from the menu and when 
you want a new window you just left click the icon

I wonder why chatzilla is not in the menu.
