Hello,

I don't use Ubuntu / Unity, but I propose a patch to have the --trayicon
again. Can someone test with the latest code and let me know if works or
not?

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=675064

Also, I'll be glad if someone send patches to fix it.

Kind regards

Title:
  regression: lost ability to show continuous status with
  tray/appindicator icon

Status in Zenity:
  In Progress
Status in “zenity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The change in the "zenity --notification" behavior completely removed
  the functionality to display an unobtrusive, always visible tray icon
  from zenity.

  For clarity, the tray icon functionality should be made available with
  a proper "zenity --trayicon" feature.

  For backwards compatibility, the --notification option would have to
  continue to show an icon. It may do so only together with the the
  --listen option (this then implies status updates should follow), and
  emit only a simple notification bubble and exit otherwise.

  ---
  Ubuntu 11.10
  zenity 3.2.0-0ubuntu1

  In a script I use following line:
  exec 3> >(zenity --notification --window-icon="icon.svg" --listen --text="some text")
  so I can change the tray icon based on what the script does.

  What I expect to happen:
  "zenity --notification" should show an icon in the tray or appindicator.

  What happens instead:
  A "zenity --warning" style dialog window pops up.
