[Kde-pim] kleopatra system tray

I was investigating updating kleopatra's System Tray icon to using 
KStatusNotifierItem, in the interests of getting it playing nicer with the kde 
tray.

kleopatra's SysTrayIcon is a QSystemTrayIcon descendant and adds a 
considerable amount of crypto related functionality. I don't if its only used 
in kleopatra or if other apps use it.

I thought of two approaches:

1. Redefine Kleo::SystemTrayIcon to inherit from KStatusNotifierItem instead 
of QSystemTray

or

2. Copy the SystrayIcon functionality into a new KStatusNotifierItem 
descendant (KSysTrayIcon?)


I think 1) would be easier to 2) but maybe it would break api compatibility 
for public apps?

Any opinions?

thanks,
