Comment 4 for bug 634957

No, that patch doesn't remove the notification area icon, just the setting in gwibber-preferences. It's because of the fallback to the status icon, we check for interest in the indicator, and hide the status icon when the indicator tells us it is interested. So our initial check for interest is false, so we try to display the status icon, then we get the signal there is interest and we hide the status icon.

We need to allow for that delay somehow.
