Title:
  yad notification icon does not display in notification area, therefore
  losing functionality

Status in “compiz” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Ubuntu does not display the notification icon for yad, which means
  that its extremely useful functionality no longer works. It affects
  many scripts.

  To duplicate the problem:

  1. Install yad from pp:webupd8team/y-ppa-manager.

  2. Open a terminal or Alt-F2 and enter the following two lines.

  yad --notification --listen
  menu:Proceed!gedit|Cancel!quit

  3. No notification appears in the notification area. Ubuntu is
  supposed to display yad's icon, allowing the user-specified menu to
  show when the icon is clicked.
