Yes, it's doable.
But do you means it would copy the image with the kicker background,
etc... or *just* the pixmap?

If it's just the pixmap, we already can get it by KSystemTray::pixmap();

The only thing kicker can do better is to determine if the systray is
visible (with kapp->widgetAt(g), I think it's possible).

I've realised a test of a possible thing:
It paint the systray icon over the screenshot:

Just need to add:
    painter.drawPixmap(g.x() - x, g.y() - y + 1, *pixmap());
before the line
    painter.end();

But that's yet another uggly hack :-/
It just make the icon visible to the user in EVERY cases.
