These features of window behavior are normally handled by the Windows or 
X Window window manager code. Though you can reach behind the interface 
and change them, it might be easier simply to have a "Migrate to System 
Tray" button inside your system's GUI. This could toggle to "Normal 
Iconisation" when the window only appeared int he system tray.

Or, you could do what the Windows Task Manager does, and provide both a 
standard icon *and* a system tray icon.

Noticed you seem to be pretty new to c.l.py, so while I have your 
attention: welcome aboard!
