Click on the little up triangle (show hidden icons) displays a list of several
(e.g., battery monitor). But neither left nor right click on the element of the
list seems to do anything. I expected it to open the respective app, as it
would have done if the icon was not hidden.

you mean, like in your example, after clicking on '^', and clicking
(left or right) on the now-shown battery monitor applet does nothing?
If so, that's not something I can reproduce.

I can reproduce it, at least parcially. I need to click over the
battery *icon* to get the popup (clicking over the text produces no
response). The same happens with non-KDE apps (Dropbox, JDownloader,
GTK apps, ...), with Qt-only apps (QMMP, KeePassX, ...) and even with
many non-plasmoid KDE apps (RSIBreak).
Oddly enough, most of the KDE *plasmoids* and some non-plasmoid KDE
apps (Amarok) living in systray's popup can be activated by clicking
the icon *or* the text. But the battery plasmoid is a weird exception
here.
Systray's popup seems to behave very inconsistently for me.

Do you have some non-standard qt installation/version?

[christian@laptop ~]$ rpm -q qt kdelibs kde-workspace
qt-4.8.2-5.fc17.x86_64
qt-4.8.2-5.fc17.i686
kdelibs-4.9.0-2.fc17.x86_64
kde-workspace-4.9.0-4.fc17.x86_64
I' using Fedora repos + kde-{testing,unstable}. Nothing non-standard AFAIK.

Ok, it seems to be 'battery mon' and 'notifications' that are failing to
react
to click. Device notifier, printer applet do react and open a window.
Everything is kde-testing+kde-unstable

I think this is normal for non-KDE stuff, it uses the legacy XEmbed-based
system tray spec which does not consider text at all, and mouse events are
only handled inside the XEmbed "window", which is the icon only.
Why you are getting this behavior with the battery plasmoid, I don't know.

Guess what? I got battery mon to respond. You have to click in the right place
- on the icon, not on the text. Not obvious.
