+Omar:

That is a non-trivial decision (removing systray). What will replace it
and will programmers need to alter their code to function with it and
will it be configurable by the user and will that config interface be as
obtuse and obfuscated as the cli command currently on offer? Don't think
I'm afraid of the cli, either. There are many things, like package and
file management, that are easier there.

Frankly, I gave Unity a whole release cycle to see if I could live with
it. It turns out I can't, and it's largely because of config options.
GUI settings should be easily configurable in the GUI. If a thing is
intended to be non-mutable, then don't even allow change via cli. I have
switched to e17, though fvwm is tempting me back.

Oh, and I filed the bug because it affected (as of Oneiric):
cryptkeeper,
skype,
guake,
pidgin,
wget,
uget,
gnome-globalmenu,
and a handful of other useful widgets and programs that I find useful on 
occasion.
