I hide windows instead of closing them, but I would like to be able to with the mouse ... with a single click. I don't want to invoke it from the system menu, which seems clunky compared to a button on the window itself. Is anyone aware of an app that can add a "hide app button" to the window?
I'm aware of the keyboard shortcut.
Thank you!

Not exactly what you want, but if you set it up in the Dock System Preferences, you can double-click the title bar to minimize the window.
Hmm. Yeah, close, but equivelant to clicking the - button in the upper-left, correct? I guess I should just minimize windows instead of hiding them since the behavior is more or less the same.
It just seems odd that, with the emphasis of hiding apps, there is no actual GUI element to invoke it with a single click.
Thank you!
You'll have to play with it a while. I don't usually do either, so I'm not sure.
I know there is some difference in how it responds to Mission Control and Exposé.

You need to start your own question. You've hijacked onto this one that has absolutely nothing to do with your problem. Go to here: https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/os_x_mountain_lion

I ended up assigning Hide to a three-finger click on the Majic Mouse via MagicPerfs. Works perfectly.
Single mouse-click to hide windows?
