hrm.. .would sth like:

	QPoint p = systemtray->mapToGlobal(QPoint(0,0)); 
	if (QApplication::desktop()->screenGeometry()->contains(p))

work? i wonder even if just

	QApplication::desktop()->screenNumber(systemtray) == -1

would work?

this obviously doesn't cover the scenario where the panel is covered by 
something else though...

as for the KSystemTray object always returning true for isVisible(), the 
systemtray could do something like:

	KWin::WindowInfo info = KWin::windowInfo(emb->embeddedWinId());
	KWin::setState(emb->embeddedWinId(), info->state() | NET::Hidden)

and then do the reverse on showing ... 

note that the above is all completely untested, and just ideas =) it still 
won't solve things for 100% of the cases (e.g .the tray is obscured by 
another window).

Jason's suggestion to have the pixmap passed back via DCOP is likely the most 
foolproof method. as for not working in KDE, well, the user just doesn't get 
a pretty picture when they aren't in KDE?
