Hi Michael, hi Tristan,

Actually, this can be blamed on the way how X11 integrates with MS Windows.

We would need an app that docks into the Windows system tray and  
proxies system tray icons coming in from applications running in  
VcXsrv/X11.

http://standards.freedesktop.org/systemtray-spec/systemtray-spec-0.2.html#docking

So you would need an app that is standing with one leg in X11,  
providing the system-tray-provider specs as defined by freedesktop.org  
and standing in MS Windows with the other leg, proxying the incoming  
X11 systray icons/menus to the Windows system tray.

Never heard of something like this to exist, actually.

Any ideas???

Mike
