If the insert-s system tray hot key capability went away, I would shed 0 tears. That being said, have you tried the real way of reaching the system tray? Windows-B is the hot key and it works no matter which window you are in. When you get there, arrow to your desired icon and press space or applications key, depending on the properties of the icon and you will have access to the menus.
