pidgin, qbittorrent, gnote, kmix, to pick a few examples from my
(overcrowded) systray.

Honestly, I don't have much of a clue.  Most applications seem to handle
this case just fine, but then they don't typically require the presence
of a systray, unlike xpad.

(I myself once wrote a small crappy PyGTK app with systray support, and
eventually gave up on trying to get it right.  I just use sleep to delay
the launch, to make sure the WM is done starting up.)

Aside from running a WM without a systray?  :)

With fluxbox, it's quite easy to sleep a little bit before exec'ing
the WM in ~/.fluxbox/startup.
