To expand on what Thomas said, SNI is just a specification, the implementation is fully up to the shells. We chose to implement it as systray icons, but some innovation there could take it to much different places. So far nobody has come with ideas of what that innovation may be, however. As for Gnome and their standard, well from your point of view it may all seem great, but with couple years of maintaining our notification system I will just disagree with you and leave it there because this is not the place for this conversation.
