Nitpicking: this does depend on the desktop manager you use.

For Example: I use the XFCE desktop manager under Linux. 

Under XFCE no Java or other application, desktop utility or accessory 
(calculator, etc) ever shows an icon in the top left corner of its window.

However, XFCE supports multiple desktops (4 by default) and the relevant 
icon appears on the appropriate desktop selector in the top XFCE menu 
bar. Java applications default to the OpenJava icon. These are used to 
select the desktop you want to see, set focus to your chosen application 
and to move applications between desktops.
