[Bug 702763] [NEW] Mouse clicks are not correctly passed to application

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

When using Konversation, the behaviour when clicking on the Application icon should be:
  * Single click with left mouse button: Show/Hide Konversation chat window.
  * Single click with right mouse button: Show the Konversation menu.

With the Indicator Applet 0.3.7, the Konversation menu appears when left-clicking (instead of right-clicking) on the icon.
The Show/Hide chat window using a simple left mouse button click is now not available again, it is always necessary to use "Restore" from the Konversation menu, which is uncomfortable.

When right-clicking, the Menu from the Applet (with the about dialog
from the Applet) appears instead of the expected Konversation dialog.

Thus It seems that the Applet interferes with the Application-icon's mouse handling and thus causes problems when accessing its functions.
I would suggest to pass through mouse clicks to the Application as they are and to make the Applet menu accessible by one of these:
  * Hold CTRL key when right click
  * Click in space between icons
  * Have an own icon for the Applet
