I didn't open one; I searched for closed 'xfapplet' bugs and realized there was already an ebuild in the tree but it was removed. It doesn't look like there's anything new to release: http://git.xfce.org/panel-plugins/xfce4-xfapplet-plugin/log/ All of the commits in the last few years have been translations and permission bit twiddling. There is an XFCE bug open for it: https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7963 but I wouldn't get my hopes up if I were you. It sounds like the way Gnome 3 does things is incompatible with the panel applet concept. Of course, you can always keep your own copy of gnome-panel-2.x and its applets around. But it might be better to file a feature request to implement whichever panel applet you want for XFCE.
