Details:

I've attached a patch which allows applications (and users) to disable the
display of the application icon by setting the "GSDontShowAppIcon" user
default. This feature is useful when writing system applications (such as the
menu server app in Etoile:
http://svn.gna.org/viewcvs/etoile/trunk/Etoile/Services/Private/MenuServer/)
for which it is not desirable that they display an app icon, or when
integrating GNUstep apps into non-GNUstep environments (where the app icon
sticks out awfully).

The reason why it's done as a user default is because it allows both humans
and programs to override this setting no both a global environment basis (by
putting it in NSGlobalDomain in the user defaults) and a per-app basis.
