It refers to what it says: Highlights being triggerend and the current nick
being used. Those correspond to the "Highlight triggered" and "Nick written"
events in the "Configure Notifications" dialog, though the settings there are
independent from what the tray icon does.


> Elsewhere notifications and systray marking are used as synonyms

No, they aren't - that groupbox is the only set of settings related to the tray
icon. If you're thinking of the "Mark taskbar entry" checkboxes for the events
in "Configure Notifications", the taskbar entry is distinct from the tray icon.

The config dialog is currently being redesigned, which should bring about
various consistency improvements in language and an overall better structure.

That said, a fundamental problem is that the "Configure Notifications" dialog
is a standard dialog provided by the KDE libraries, front-ending KDE's
notification system, and is not extensible by applications. Since the tray icon
is distinct from that notification system and presently cannot be integrated
with it (and the same goes for other notification systems Konvi offers, like
the tab labels or the OSD) you have the unfortunate situation of having
multiple places and multiple different UIs to configure them. There's some hope
that KDE Frameworks 5 might improve that situation however.
