tray icons. GNOME treats background processes like bugs to be squashed. Let's just get real here for a second: sometimes you want programs to run in the background and sometimes you want to be able to see what they are doing in real time. I want my email clients to tell me when I get emails, I wan't my Nextcloud to tell me when there are sync issues, and I want Discord to tell me if I get DMs. This should be considered basic functionality.

Ideally the graphical app shouldn't be running in the background UNLESS the user explicitly allows it. VLC is an example of an application that doesn't run in the background unless the user allows it.
