Menu bar-only mode

[GoldenChaos]

If this is just for notifications, taking up dock space seems unwarranted. Requesting a menu bar mode!

Hi @GoldenChaos. What would you expect the behaviour for this to be? I wouldn't mind the app being able to hide in to the menu bar and open up again via the menu bar, but I'm not sure its worth duplicating the UIs to have a pure menu-bar mode?

Let me know what your thoughts are.

I think that dock and menu bar launchers can coexist nicely, even if they're both just dumb launchers. I think some apps straddle that line between app and utility where some users prefer to have a tool run in the background while others constantly watch their notifications and so appreciate the larger icons and badge support of the dock. This feels like one of those apps to me.

It seems to be common for such apps to have three modes:

• Dock Icon Only
• Menu Bar Icon Only
• Dock Icon + Menu Bar Icon

In this case, I was thinking that clicking the menu bar icon would simply show the app window as-is, no separate UI for the menu bar (though that might eventually be a cool thing to have).

Okay great, I'm fine with this. I'll have to see where this fits in, and have a plan. However PRs always welcome!
