If this is included in repo by default, some apps will work out of the
box; in case of apps that don't want to launch without systray
support.
However I am not really interested by systray in wmaker, it's not in
the "look and feel" of this kind of WM. I don't feel ok with 5
applications with systray in the bottom of the screen plus their own
icons.

A question though, what is the license of the new files you added?
