--- Comment #3 from Thomas Pfeiffer <thomas.pfeiffer at kde.org> ---
The systray should not use icons fromt he Application category, anyway, because
those are colored whereas systray icons are black and white.

That said: I agree that the current KAlarm icon is too complex for smaller
sizes. What a Google search for "alarm icon" shows is that the most common
metaphors for alarm are either a mechanical alarm clock or a bell.
Both are not "modern", but easily identifiable even in small sizes with few
details. Maybe we should just stick with the classic metaphors, same as the
"floppy disk = save".
