cause something weird happens if the panel go moved from bottom to right and 
back to bottom. Just use the "xwininfo" commandline-tool to check the name 
before and after, the trayicons seem to lose there name cause of that (that's 
why I still didn't land the "hide-trayicons" patch in trunk but only in the 
systray-refactor area + added a note about that problem to the sources).
