No, it just means systrays take a new form / use a new API. This api is 
known as appindicator, kde5, unity, gnome and enlightenment have all 
dropped the old xembed systray in favor of the appindicator dbus api. 
Most apps are slowly porting to the new format for Qt4 apps you can 
install sni-qt and it will happen automatically, most python apps will 
also work if you install the right modules.

The version of nm-applet in git supports appindicator if you use the 
compile flag and it works (I tested it)
