An improved notification area visually

Registered by phenest

This blueprint has been superseded. See the newer blueprint "transparent background and repositionable notification area" for updated plans.

The notification area applet currently looks rather ugly. In Gnome panels, it is possible to achieve a transparent background. To have transparency and perhaps a nice colour coordinated border. Also, some icons (e.g. package manager working icon) cause the area to expand to a rather large size. This does not happen with Gnome panels.
