Add checking of new mail and provide notifcations in appindicator if available:

Implementing this (and other my suggestions) will make gnome-gmail full-featured browser-based client for gmail.
There are many indicator options available. Pick the one that displays in the right place for you.
Not all users run Ubuntu.
