If you like simplicity, Fluxbox is your "desktop". Actually, it is only
a window manager but has many compatible applets for its dock (called
slit) and one of them is the "tray" compatible with any application
using freedesktop standards for tray.
I really love FluxBox, I've used it many years in the past but I changed
to GNOME because it is a full integrated desktop... maybe sometime in
the future I'll return to FluxBox.
