What is the status of this proposal? As I can see it haven't been 
commited to the spec repository (btw, what is the correct url for the 
systray-spec repository - 
http://webcvs.freedesktop.org/systemtray/systemtray-spec/ says it's 
outdated, however cgit.freedesktop.org doesn't contain any repository 
for specs).

Will it get into the next version of spec?

There is also a suggestion to add it to Qt (which I am currently working 
on):
