I still don't see why if you *know* the icon is being managed by the ksystray 
applet, you can't just tell it to paint itself onto a QPixmap and return that 
via a DCOP call. Something like "dcop kicker KSystemTrayIface 
systemTrayImage()"

This saves you from all that raising / hiding / screenshot nonsense (that 
would likely flicker)

Sure it won't work for other system trays, but neither will DCOP calls to 
raise/lower the tray.
