Sorry for taking so long to respond, but I now finally managed
to reproduce this misbehaviour also with the Shutter Screenshot
Tool → http://shutter-project.org/

So it's not (only) related to Ekiga. And if it were, I'd guess you
would heard about it by now, and not just from me alone.

Hm. Any idea about when a app indicator patch might be there?
Sadly, I cannot code :)
