Title:
  Custom indicators not shown after restarting Unity

Status in Unity:
  Expired
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Tested on Unity 7.1.2+14.04.20140328.1-0ubuntu1

  If Unity restarts, either by crashing or manually with "restart unity-
  panel-service" or "unity --replace", when Unity comes back, I can no
  longer see my custom indicators.  I am still able to see the default
  indicators (sync, messages, sound, datetime, and session), but not the
  ones I have installed: sensors, cpufreq, multiload, weather, etc.
  These indicators are still running and appear in the process list, I
  just can't see them in the panel.  I still see notifications from
  them.  If I kill and restart any of these indicators, they run fine,
  but I still cannot see them in the panel.  The only way I have found
  to get them back is to completely log out and  back in.

  I can't figure out what differentiates these "custom" indicators from
  the default ones that would cause them not to appear.  With weather-
  indicator, I even created an upstart job to control it.  If no one
  else is able to reproduce this, please let me know how best to debug
  it further.
