Regardless of rules, I believe that things should be portable whenever 
possible. With the rewrite, the only X11 specific code is that which 
implements the FDO system tray spec[1] and is contained wholly within 
core/fdo. It's actually a step forward with regard to portability when 
compared to the current system tray. :)

If somebody wants to add a new protocol implementation that implements 
the (undocumented!) windows spec, the rest of the applet will work just 
fine.
