May I try?

On one of my desktops I currently have 21 little icons squished into the 
systray. That's getting rather ugly and slows me down when hunting for 
the volume control :)

And if you are as wildly successful in attracting developers for these 
kinds of applets as I think you will be, systrays everywhere may become 
really overcrowded and ugly rather sooner than later.
