Reproduced and fixed, Kyle; the fix ships in the next build after 1.0.515. It is related to #95: it only happens once an External Webview (or another panel webview) is open.

Hydrogen found its main window with a lookup that only returns a window holding exactly one webview. External Webviews are extra webviews attached to the main window, so from the first one on, the lookup came back empty and the X's "hide to tray" silently did nothing. The same broken lookup meant the tray's Open Hydrogen, the close toast, and relaunching could not bring a hidden window back. Hydrogen now looks the window up in a way that works however many webviews it holds.
