For those who like a clean status bar, this would be nice.  Maybe only notify when registration is lost.

Did you switch to ExpertSettingMode? It's in User Interface settings once in ExpertSettingMode (see wiki page)

I don't recommend to remove this from the User Interface however :

Android automatically considers applications that doesn't show an icon to users as having a lower priority and that can be killed at anytime to reduce RAM size.
So if you are configured to receive calls (which is probably the case if you see the icon even after quitting the app with back key), you should keep this option activated, else android may kill the application and you'll not receive your calls.

If you actually don't want to receive calls, you should configure csipsimple to do so. And you'll see that the registration icon will just not be shown and for good reason because the app will just be turned off. And will only restart when needed (make an outgoing call from stock dialer if configured for integration with stock dialer and when starting the app). And will automatically quit when you quit the app (remember that in android you quit an application by pressing the back key while you suspend it by pressing the home key which is two very different actions).
