I agree on all points, especially the frustration of not being able to
remove the global menu/top panel.

Still though, wouldn't something like what I proposed earlier
http://fav.me/d3h14i1 (disregard everything but the traybar in top-right
corner) work?

Last I checked, Gnome supported multiple resizable panels. Wouldn't it be a
simple matter of defining "this autoscaling, always-on-top panel goes in the
the top-right corner and holds all the tray-icons per default"? As far as I
see it doesn't violate the standard convention of how tray-icons work, while
at the same time allowing for removal of the rest of the panel.
