I think that we should use the space for something more informative than
the 8 icons...

like a widget space, riiiight?
this could be easily achieved by using the Launcher API in the Dash.
there would be enough space for all high-interest statuses such as email, instant messaging & call services, progress on system update or filetransfer or filedownloads and a visual way of indicating, how many windows the browser has open.
Yeah right...
Plus more such as weather or a calender.

weather i don't know, i'd like it, personally, but some might not.
But Calendar, yes, calendar is one important feature that has yet to be properly implemented in the free Desktop Environment.
at least a live indication of the next appointment today and a proper date showing the  day of the week.
