I was just looking again at the code, but I noticed that also in my
very first implementation (following what has already done on the
default API), I didn't introduce any user_data pointer for the
scrolled_entry signal. That is maybe not needed by userland (using
libappindicator) since it was included there, but maybe it could be
something we could introduce (also if it's always possible to attach
some data to the Indicator object as a workaround)...
In the indicator object interface that's the only signal not having an
user_data field; I guess that it's something that some bindings
(vala?!) would need.
