I am not a Python expert, but I am using KDE on my workstation at home and a big Python fan ;)
A couple of days ago I was thinking the same and found how to create systray apps for Windows! You can make this kind of apps with wxPython. When I was at home and behind my KDE desktop I tried the Windows code and it worked flawlessly in KDE. It was integrating into the kicker without problems. This was the thread that helped me out: http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.python/tree/browse_frm/thread/2113ca0f132f2f49/96f32dcd5e6f96ae Try to play with the code and you will see it will work :) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
