OK. I just updated the diff file. The system tray now has the iconSize option 
which is not exposed from the config dialog. 

Look and feel packages can set this value according to the documentation at 
https://userbase.kde.org/KDE_System_Administration/PlasmaTwoDesktopScripting#Default_applets_config_from_Look_and_Feel_packages

That is by creating a file name org.kde.plasma.private.systemtray.js in the 
plasmoidsetupscripts subfolder of the Look and Feel package with the following 
contents

    applet.currentConfigGroup = new Array("General");
    applet.writeConfig("iconSize", 1);
    applet.reloadConfig();

Of course a user can still modify this value by manually editing his 
~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc
