Anything that's not a system indicator :) The library that handles this
fallback is libappindicator. You can find any application using
libappindicator like this:
$ apt-cache rdepend libappindicator0
Probably the simplest case in Lucid is to look at the Rhythmbox
application indicator or the GNOME Power Manager one.
