Hi, Sean

I can only comment on docker - it's the only one in your list that I have used.

Docker works well as a substitute for wmsystemtray.  It can only hold 4 trayed 
icons per instance, so if you know you will normally have 5 or more you'll need 
to autostart a couple of instances when you start Window Maker.  Docker needs 
to be started with the -wmaker option to create a 64x64 tile.  

Having used it for a long time, I can say that it does what it was designed to 
do very well - I have experienced no problems at all.  If you open 2 or 3 
instances from the autostart file, one thing you will notice is that trayed 
icons can and do show up more-or-less randomly across all of your open docker 
instances.  So for example, if I open volumeicon and wicd-gtk via autostart, I 
may or may not get both falling in the same docker tile.

Hope this helps, and yes, I agree - a default system tray app (my vote goes to 
wmsystemtray BTW) would a great addition to the default Window Maker line-up.  
Some kind of system tray is pretty much indispensable nowadays.

Bill
