I'd like to report two more bugs I've run into.

Occasionally (usually after it's been up for a while), clicking on the Yappari applet in the toggles menu doesn't bring up the app. I assume this means Yappari itself has died, and only the applet is still there; the behaviour is the same as when I kill Yappari via console. This did not happen with 0.0.18. A humble suggestion: the applet should be capable of figuring out when the client has died and either signal it or stop itself; as it is it just sits there reporting the latest status (which is usually "Logged in") and confusing the user.

Conversely, sometimes Yappari doesn't quit when it should. Because of the well-known issues with finding a connection on the first shot, it can happen that I have to restart Yappari two or three times before it logs in. I normally just go in the app menu and select quit, wait a few seconds and restart it. However, the last time I did that I then ran top and saw three instances of Yappari running. A "killall Yappari" followed by another restart fixed that.

I can't post logs right now because the last time both these issues happened I was on the go and couldn't tinker with the terminal; I'll post it the next time it happens when I'm at home.
