Perhaps a bug report should be filed against the Gnome 3 notification server regarding the GtkStatusIcon issue.
As a more general remark, telephony applications can be difficult to quit for casual users. How about a small dialog when the Linphone window is closed? It would offer to quit or stick around to answer calls. An option to hide the dialog in the future would make it a one time annoyance to those who think it is superfluous.

I feel very angry about all the unnecessary complexity that recently

many ways of managing notifications, and it is very difficult for an

they are welcome.
My comment is of course off-topic, but the solution I'd suggest is to use Xfce instead of the Gnome 3 flavours. Xfce can easily emulate Gnome 3 Classic or Gnome 2, and besides provides more flexibility.
Here Linphone closes as expected when accessing 'Quit' via right-click on the systray icon.
