IMHO the margins should be increased overall. Currently, it is waaay too small,
depending largely on the margins of the own icon. This should be avoided
because we cannot always expect the icon to have margins, especially the third
party ones, and because even if the icon has a margin, the icon itself may vary
in width, leading again to the feeling of inconsistent spacing in the tray. The
way other systems deal with this is increasing the margins. See elementary is
the screenshot for an example, the sound/volume icon is almost 3 times the
width of the Bluetooth, however, since the spacing between the items is more
prominent, the extra pixels taken up by the volume icon is barely perceived, 
and it does not interfere with the general feeling of organization in the tray.
This doesn't mean the plasma systray should adopt the elementary spacing, I
think that is a bit excessive, but a middle ground should be beneficial.
