Actually, I've been quite happy to have that darn menu out of the way,
so I've set my configuration to immediately minimize to the
taskbar/systray. ;-)
I prefer the right-click-to-start approach similar to the local start
menu.  If you want to try it out:
- ->Options/Settings, "General" tab, check "Display icon in system
tray", and check all the boxes within that frame, too.
Since you're sending your mail from a .ch domain - in case you are
using a German-Language environment, the names are:
Einstellungen/Konfiguration, Reiter "Allgemein", "Symbol im
Systemabschnitt der Kontrolleiste anzeigen".

Also, note that there is a way to start one application immediately
after the connection is established in Published Application Mode.
Maybe you can use that as a workaround for your use case?

I.e. my customers use this to start the web browser immediately upon
connect, and when they need access to another application, they select
it from the context menu of the taskbar/systray icon.

Add  --autostart=nameofprogram to the command line/shortcut for that.

PS: There will be an X2Go demo at the IBM campus in Zurich,
Switzerland in June.  If that's close to your location, feel free to
stop by (admission is free, but registration is required, contact me
off-list for details).
