Actually I don't mind the missing frames in other places (were they present? I don't remember), but for System Tray it get's confusing. E.g. the Klipper icon is _NOT_ on the tray, but you can't tell this. Of course turning on the Fade out applet handles solves the problem somewhat. But if the applet handles are not shown (and we have an option to not show them) you(I) have the problem. I'm happy also with the solution that the System Tray detects the applet handle state, and shows the frame if they are hidden. Or the System Tray may have the frame always on. Does it disturb somebody?
