12 This class represents a taskbar icon. A taskbar icon is an icon that appears in
13 the 'system tray' and responds to mouse clicks, optionally with a tooltip above it to help provide information.

88 @note Tray availability may change during application's lifetime
89 under X11 and so applications shouldn't cache the result.

91 @note wxTaskBarIcon supports older GNOME 1.2 and KDE 1/2 methods of
92 adding icons to tray, but they are unreliable and this method
93 doesn't detect them.
