Thank you for looking into this...

hoevere, after testing once again under a xfce session, i've noticed that once in the notification area the system-tray icon doesn't react to any input on xfce: the context-menu doesn't come up on right-click nor the main window show/hides on left-click, whatsoever--this is critical and major crippling to the system-tray icon functionality as it's supposed to be: so please read this very carefully: **DON'T ENABLE THE SYSTEM-TRAY ICON** on desktop systems that do not support the original protocol.
it is now clear to me that XFCE is following suit with the GNOME3 ban:

I am not sure what you are meaning by this. Can you explain a little more?
