As for me wmsystemtray and stalonetray looks quite ugly. I would recommend to
try lxpanel. It may be even used instead of plasma panel.
Personally I use plasma panel + lxpanel [1][2] with own plasma theme [3].

Plasmoids were added on desktop only for screenshots. Unfortunately they are
currently unusable due to too high CPU usage (about 30-50% of each CPU core).
Hope this helps.
