the interesting thing about the notification widget is that it doesn't actually
need any icon or anything. it just needs to exist. and then it can show
notifications.
so the idea is that the notification widget behaviour is merged with the system
tray:
the system tray icons are the user visible UI part of the widget, and the
notifications are also handled by that same widget and it shows the
notifications above/below/whatever the system tray, just like it currently
shows them above/below/whatever the icon.
the idea is to prevent having to have two widgets, each taking up space, and
coming up with a sensible icon for the notifications.
