As I said earlier, I do configure some apps to dock themselves in the system tray, and I want them there. I don't want uninvited guests, nor the reduplication of those useless ghost icons. I am pretty sure that I never deliberately configured any apps to do that, but I could be wrong.

It usually happens when I am in a kind of wild burst of creativity, where I am clicking to open one application or file after another. Then I might have several different items open in quick succession, but they all get tagged with the same ghost icon, whatever it may be, as that's totally random.
