The Mac RC is a near-pure GTK build compiled against gtk-quartz and actually does not really implement any Cocoa bindings that would enable that kind of functionality, hence why the odd behaviour of quitting altogether when you close the main window, no menu bar items or window contexts within the Dock etc.
It would be quite a lot of work to modify the RC to work like a typical Mac application does and probably require a lot of time that Stefan and unixmad are not willing to dedicate - it took us long enough just to get the RC compiled for OS X at all.
