  The gnome notification area currently has a fixed color, which is 
  the default gnome-panel background color; if you change the gnome-panel 
  background, however, the notification area becomes somewhat of an 
  eyesore. A transparent background (so it can pick up whatever the panel 
  has) would be preferred- perhaps with some sort of border to visually 
  distinguish between panel icons and notification area icons.

Mark, I'm shocked to see you don't remember bug #100600 ;-)
