The only patch I see is a change to the default system icon size, from 22 pixels to 16 pixels. The system tray has always (confirmed on 3.5.12, and probably works on earlier versions than this) been able to expand to multiple rows if sufficient vertical height was given to it.

Ahh, that was it. I have a 36px kicker, so when the default systray icon went from 22->16, I automatically got 2 rows. (still a neat trick!)
Be aware that while TDE applications support nonstandard (!= 22x22 pixel) icon sizes, most other applications do NOT. TDE tries hard to resize these other applications as needed, but it doesn't always work properly, and usually the resized icons are harder to see / blurrier than the native icons.
The reason I know this is that I originally wrote the icon resize feature for TDE, and did not change the default size to 16x16 for these reasons. ;-)
current Nm-applet (uses gtk-3.0) has this issue of not resizing/drawing correctly, I don't know if it's related.
Here is a screenshot. The weird half outlined box is what is supposed to be nm-applet.
Anyone else have this problem?
