I think it will be better to have a gb.dbus.desktop component that can
group classes like tray icon, notification, appmenu... Etc

Or gb.desktop.dbus

But gb.dbus.tray icon is too restrictive and I think we have to be carefull
in the multiplication of the components.

After... It's an hidden component it's an extention of gb.gui
