Imho the title of the current active application should be shown. When clicking it it should popup a menu with a "Quit" entry and an "About" one. The about one is something easily retrievable through the KAboutData class but i dunno for other kind of apps. When no application is shown Plasma settings seems reasonable to me (maybe using the cashew icon in place of a string for the menu entry :). Just my 2cc.
