which would be PanelView plasma ..

*thinks*

perhaps we should put a hack in corona that publishes where the systray is 
positioned and then rely on the view in this one case to handle it. this 
could be put into Plasma::View i suppose. this would mean moving the 
systray-widget-handling code into Plasma::View itself, probably as a separate 
private class that it just creates as a child widget. when the systray applet 
moves or expands, it would emit a signal that corona would relay and the 
corresponding Plasma::View would move the widget as well.

Chani: what do you think?

yep.
