Thanks for the reminder, I need to add a NEWS.Debian item about that.
The system tray icon is gone, replaced by the panel plugin. That means
you need an Xfce panel running (and the xfce4-panel Suggests was
upgraded to a Recommends).
Upstream has said that if someone was interested in running an applet
in another kind of panel, she should report it to Xfce bugzilla (see
https://mail.xfce.org/pipermail/xfce-announce/2014-June/000326.html).
I'm not personally interested in that, so I won't do it, but I don't
close this bug as wontfix since I'll use it to remember to document that
invasive change (unless it's reverted when final 1.4.0 version is
released).
