Comment 5 for bug 773979

The notification area has been deprecated in favor of the indicator in Ubuntu for over a year which let time to application writers to upgrade their code, those icons don't behave in a consistant way and are an issue for the user experience, the whitelist is to accomodate the transition but it should be dropped in the next cycles and going through manual review of applications which have an issue allow building a list of what needs to be done and re-enforce the message to application writer that they will need to update their code if they want it to work correctly in Ubuntu in the next cycles
