No, GNOME Shell isn't drawing that icon, gnome-settings-daemon is. It
must be that notify-osd intercepts g-s-d's handling of it somehow when
it's running, but gnome-shell kills notification-daemon/notify-osd on
startup now so it can take over the org.freedesktop.Notifications D-Bus
service (for the notifications at the bottom of the screen). So now you
see the default gnome-settings-daemon implementation.
