hmm i'm not sure about it, i don't see an huge use case of showing icons th=
at are meant to be passive (so not telling anything useful at the moment)

however the patch is well done (i appreciate disabling the combo boxes when=
 the always show all option is checked)
so hmm, yeah, i'm a bit on the fence on this one but if there aren't other =
objections i think it can go in

there is no single setting to allow this.  The only option is to go to System Tray \
Settings - Entries and set all of the &quot;Visibility&quot; combo boxes to \
&quot;Always Visible&quot;, and repeat this whenever a new item appears.

All versions of a popular closed source operating system have this option for the \
system tray.

This change adds a check box &quot;Always show all system tray items&quot; below the \
list on the Entries page.  Checking this sets all items (current and any new ones \
that may appear in future) to be always visible and disables the \
&quot;Visibility&quot; column.  It is still possible to access the &quot;Keyboard \
Shortcut&quot; column.

The default is for this option not to be set, so the system tray operation is the \
same as before.</pre>  </td>
