Bug Description

I'd like to press a global hotkey (maybe Super+P) to bring up exaile from the system tray and then the same button to send it back. A global hotkey to toggle the OSD would be nice too.

At least the visibility of the main window can be toggled via --toggle-visible and the GuiToggleVisible D-Bus method.

Global hotkeys in general should be supported. The currently best way to go is the gtkhotkey library since it aims to accomplish this in a platform-independent manner. Currently only usable via C though so we have to wait for Python bindings and/or integration into core GTK.

summary: - global hotkey for showing and hiding exaile
+ Global hotkey support
