If you don't have both, especially the status, don't use an indicator. Use a menu." So... what's the "status" for the Gimp and F-spot mockups? Scale and tags don't seem to fit at all with the original Windicator idea. In fact the only one that seems to fit the status argument is the Firefox one, but you can't manipulate the status so it shouldn't be a Windicator Luke.
