Binary package hint: evolution

In 10.10 and before, Evolution alarms would appear in the system tray. With Unity, there is no persistent trace of alarms associated with calendar events after the notification bubble has disappeared.
I think this is a regression: I trusted this function to remind me of important appointments, but unless I am in front of my screen at the appropriate moment (when the notification bubble appears) I am not made aware of these appointments.

The workaround is to whitelist evolution-alarm-notify. But presumably there needs to be a solution that integrates better with Unity, perhaps a message in the message indicator and the icon turning blue, or the date-time glowing blue and appointment flashing under the date-time menu?
