Xfce Indicator Plugin settings 1. Rightmost envelope is from indicator plugin

I have added Mail Watcher(xfce4-mailwatch-plugin) plugin to the panel which 
sits there, scans for new mail every 10 minutes, shows notification on new mail 
arrival  and launch my desired mail client (Though I've to admit setting it up 
properly requires a bit pre-acquired knowledge and effort, so not new-user 
friendly).  
So, as I've already got this working mail 
notifier+launcher(xfce4-mailwatch-plugin) on my panel, I don't need another big 
confusing envelope icon from Mail Reader which is just a launcher for the 
default mail client. 

The Mail Reader (exo-open --launch MailReader %u) is an integral part of
the desktop environment and removing it also removes the whole desktop
and the file manager.  It shows it's icon using xfce4-indicator-plugin
and there is an option to hide this(or any) icon in Indicator Plugin
settings.  But when I select the hide option and reboot, the Mail Reader
icon disappears but a large space occupying, useless text "No indicator
icon" appears on the panel.  Which actually hampers the main usefulness
of icon hiding feature.  Please change this.

OS: Ubuntu 18.04
DE: Xfce 4.12(Xubuntu)
Related package: xfce4-indicator-plugin 2.3.4-0ubuntu1

Proposed fix: When user hides all icons from Indicator Plugin, no text
should appear on it's place on the panel.
