All of these have an advantage over the current name by putting
something between the "K" and the "Notificaton". That greatly serves
to break the immediate mental connection to KNotification.
I assumed that anything containing "application" was off limits as
many systray users are services, not applications.

Can I ask why you don't think "workspace" makes sense? I thought it
was important to recognise that this "item" lives outside of the
application itself. Sticking "workspace" in there was the best I could
come up with to indicate that.

I think everyone agrees with you there. Who makes the final call? Marco?
