Blacklisting system tray icons has been by design for a long time. They
purposely removed the ability to edit the blacklist in 13.04. What's
been done has been annoying and due to the fracturing of the indicator
systems (system tray vs. app indicator vs. whatever gnome/kde are using
these days) a lot of application developers have stopped trying to
support the many ways to do indicators and just asked their users to
make plugins, assuming that popular needs would be solved. Despite being
annoying, I question whether this is a "bug" at all. It's all by
intentional design.

The plugin that was referred to is Gajim's way of supporting Unity's
appindicator system. You can find it Gajim in Edit->Plugins or http
://trac-plugins.gajim.org/wiki/AppindicatorSupportPlugin. Since this is
the "official" way of getting appindicator support at this time this bug
should probably be closed as "won't fix" since Unity won't be backing
down on this change.
