everyone has or is on the way to dropping xmbed - so if youw ant xmbed .. you
need something like stanlonetray. e supports app indicator protocol. it's a
dbus protocol instead of x windows reparented. it, at least, works in wayland
too. xmbed never will (well other than for x app compatibility with xwayland -
i mean in a wayland native world).
