Bug Description
For the implementation of a11y support in unity, we are exposing the indicator objects as containers for the indicator entries, but the indicators API doesn't provide much information about what IndicatorObject it returns (information like "Application menu", "Network status", etc) to be used when exposing the IndicatorObject's via a11y in unity's panel service.
If that information is available somewhere in the indicator's .so's, it would be great to have it in the API so that it can be used in unity to provide a good description for each indicator to a11y tools
