@Mark Shuttleworth
Off topic...but I think it's quite worth to mention that if Unity chooses to abandon configurable panel application icon whitelist settings it will be a great impact on input methods(which needs icon(s) to show itself's status, but not all imput methods have implemented an appindicator-based icon yet) and will certainly bring great burden to at least a big part of CJK users.
At least from zh_TW, ibus is far from stable(at least, till 12.10), very outdated, and is also very different logic to use than the input method in Windows. Users will likely tried to switch to another input methods such as gcin/HIME(much popularity in zh_TW), fcitx or scim etc. and may found it quite useless as the icons are blocked by the shell itself. A desktop environment unable to let user input their language easily is valueless no matter it looks beautiful or not. This reminds me the bug #876722 that LibreOffice will crash immediately after input over 6 Han characters...its a disaster.
