The details look good to me... I'm looking forward to getting to
implement support for it :) However, I have only one suggestion:

How about instead of saying "if either of these 2 properties, then
assume the client is using the new scheme", we could have a single,
authoritative way of saying "this client uses the new scheme". For
example, we could put _NET_WM_SYSTRAY_V2 in WM_PROTOCOLS, or perhaps set
_NET_WM_SYSTRAY_VERSION (for now, to 2 (type Cardinal format 32) on the
systray window.
