A system tray icon can emit notifications, but you aren’t putting the whole tray icon implementation into this library, are you?

XEmbed is a way of rendering tray icons, whereas we don’t need it for notifications themselves, right? because they are shown as separate windows.  In some cases we render them; in others, the rendering is done in another desktop-wide process.
