I discovered something interesting when I clicked on the Workspace Switcher.

My laptop screen (1280x800) is on the left, bottom aligned with my desktop monitor (1680x1050) which is on the right. When I activate the Workspace Switcher, I can see my missing notification icons in the invisible area above my laptop screen.

Attached is a screenshot I took of the Workspace Switcher screen (I had set my number of workspaces to 1 for this image). Ignoring the right half of the image (which looks like a different bug), on the left I have a maximized Nautilus window, and above it, at the top of screen, are the tray icons for Skype and DavMail.
