Of course, you can also just stop using status icons and instead

I forgot to point out that libappindicator also supports automatic fallback
to the legacy XEmbed-based spec, so it should work everywhere, too (even in
GNOME Shell's message tray (no extensions required), or with
https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/495/topicons/ even the way the icons
were designed to be displayed).
