Quiet well. All basic functionality works, though it's still not
integrated in Bugzilla (works on localhost only). As soon as I finish
KDE apport notifier, I'm going to release a public beta. One can track
my progress at http://en.opensuse.org/Interactive_Crash_Analysis

Nah, it's all the same - crash report check is still done for 3-4
times. But it's not critical anyway.

So far I ended up with gtk_status_icon_set_blinking(ta->tray_icon,
TRUE) and gtk_status_icon_set_visible(ta->tray_icon, TRUE). I believe
it's sufficient.

By the way I reported an enhancement in GNOME Bugzilla to track this
patch: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=545828
