yad --notification ... --listen (middle button exit - why not optional)

[Edward]

My problem is that my application needs a notification icon that
doesn't close with any kind of mouse click!!!

I used yad in a bash script to show an icon on systray of Ubuntu 12.04
when a webcam is inserted, but when I click with the middle mouse
button in the icon it generates a "quit" entry to the option --listen
of the yad --notification command and the icon goes away.

Here I solved that with a workaround...
I put a "while" in the following way and it worked...

exec 3> >(saida=252; while [ $saida -eq 252 ]; do yad --notification
--image=$HOME/bin/cameramonitor.xpm --text="Webcam ON!" --listen;
saida=$?; done)

...
...
...

exec 3>&-

That is not the ideal solution, so my suggestion is:
To have a way, in yad, to avoid that the middle mouse button generates
a "quit"entry to the --listen option!

Ie, it would be nice if the exit with the middle mouse button was
optional!

i think, there always must be a way to correctly close an application.
that's why i added fixed middle-click behavior to yad. middle-click is
hard to accidentally generate, that's why i choose it. but i'll add an
option to disable this feature in a next releases
