Also, the article mentions that some programmatic interactions happen via the Dock, so there is no guarantee that all will be well afterwards.In general, a Mac design principle that is likely built right in to the design of most Mac apps is that while they are executing, their icon is visible on the Dock. It is likely not a good thing to mess with this unless you REALLY know what you are up to.</blockquote>
