with the new system there is no restriction on how the data is visualized o=

how many visualizations there area of it, which opens the door in the futur=

to do things like merge taskbar and systray entries. the current assumption=

that a tray icon would need to provide an winId to accomplish this, but tha=

reasonable and already allowed for in the spec.

the only thing currently missing to be able to do perfect task/systray icon=

mash ups is sending menu entries across the bus to be rendered locally, whi=
