That's an important point. After all we deprecated the XEmbed systray a few years ago by introducing the status notifiers. So applications had time to adopt the new world and they still have time. Anyway with Wayland it's not going to work at all and that should be obvious to any application which uses a technology starting with X ;-) Cheers Martin
