  I don't think Unity needs a new API for this.  I don't have this problem
  with the integration of Thunderbird and the Mail application notifier.

Bug description:
  [Originally reported for banshee.  Re-tested with Rhythymbox on Ubuntu

  1) Start rhythymbox.  Leave the window open
  2) Open another application e.g. gnome-terminal or firefox.

  Normally (when the rhythymbox window is closed, but still playing),

  with the Banshee icon jiggling about.
