First things first: this has already been done. Check the Pardus
distro for a good one. I believe Suse also does this in Yast (which is
being ported to Debian-distros in the Yast4debian project). IIRC,
guidance also provides a module for this.

Secondly, there is absolutely no need for something "gnome-specific"
as far as systray applications are concerned (especially one that is
done in PyQt). Echoing gnomey's standard comment on such a statement,
the use of Qt (or GTK) does not make one's application
desktop-specific.
