Just remove the tray icon? And run in the background without illustrating that to the user?I don't know - this seems reasonable to me. If an application has a service component... just provide the service. As a user why do I care? There is no need for me to see something unless something happens.
Also, for email, the accounts can be setup in the control panel as an online account. If an account is setup through there, then it would certainly be nice to have GOA or something trigger notifications for these accounts if an app is not open. This would be similar to what the Ubuntu phone does with UOA, though this is more born out of the lifecycle requirement, that apps aren't allowed to run in the background.
