True, but the plasmoid is most likely not what he's using, the monolithic 
systray applet is. Unlike the plasmoid, which has to be added to the panel 
by hand, the systray applet autostarts.

No, the passive mode is because the GNOME nm-applet is running too.

No, the systray icon is the monolithic version. The kded4 service and the 
plasmoid work together and are separate from the monolithic version (and 
should not be run at the same time as it). They are not ready for production 
use.
