Perhaps mate-panel should at least put the name of the widget in the panel description (just like it does with panel_a11y_set_atk_name_desc for "Top Panel"), so at least the user knows which widget it is. We can then work on adding support to widgets, at least the most commonly used.

Upstream will probably not apply it as such, as it seems it prefers to
add support for each widget instead.
