Again, I don't see the need for it given the notification area.  The
future of Rhythmbox is going to depend more on the notification area,
not less, so I don't think spending development time on e.g. adding a
GConf key or something for you and the few others is going to be worth
it.

I don't really intend to get into a debate about GNOME vs other systems,
but really: the GNOME panel takes up a very small portion of my screen
(24 pixels, apparently).  Surely you could just run that, or the XFCE
panel or something (I think they have one).  Or implement your own
notification area, shouldn't be too hard if you're patching your WM
already.  I remember from my Emacs developer days you're a skilled
enough coder.
