Well I've been using unity since release and changed my mind about the need for "dont-quit-on-close" functionality being obsolete.
1. Space on the sidebar is at a premium. The icons are large enough that having the evolution icon there all the time adds clutter.
2. There are now 5 programs that make use of the indicator area (evolution, banshee, empathy, gwibber, and ubuntu-one). Of these evolution is the only one that doesn't run without an open window.

I updated my patch for the new version.
