yes, this shifting of the icons on the notification bar is really distracting and annoying :( would be much better if the names/descriptions would just hover on top of the icons when you move the mouse over them.

i'm also still not getting the hang of this notification bar. okay, they wanted to separate the sytem icons from the notifications, but why do they need to separate them from the running applications? wouldn't it be better if the dash gave place to such notifications? then thy could be grouped with the apps they belong to, or just be separate icons (like a weather app, or system monitor, etc). and then you also wouldn't really need so many bars all around the screen, just a top panel for the system thingies, and a sidebar/bottom bar for the apps and notifications. would make the gui even simpler and cleaner imho.

It would be nice if we could somehow handle tray icons like this some other way.   Virt-Manager, and Pidgin are also examples of this.   They rely on you clicking and interfacing with the icon so the movement of these icons in the message area are distracting at best.

Maybe have something in the Overview page which locks them and allows for you to interface with them in a more static manner.   Or something else.  Don't have many ideas at the moment.
