Found that on a blog
dbus-send --type=method_call --print-reply \
--dest=com.canonical.indicator.application \
/com/canonical/indicator/application/service \
com.canonical.indicator.application.service.GetApplications | grep "object path"
Gives you the names of all running indicators.

This doesn't seem to work in Unity2D. Which is unfortunately a giant problem because you can't us the 'all' setting in the systray-whitelist.– NicholiNov 3, 2011 at 17:09

Actually it's the same even in normal Unity...this doesn't seem to list the applications attempting to run in the tray at all.– NicholiNov 3, 2011 at 17:15

some of the indicators' names you can guess from their application/autostart name and try them out in the gconf-editor.– joschiNov 3, 2011 at 17:49

The biggest problem is guessing as to the capitalization of the application name. It really would be nice to just know what name to look for, either from the application developer/source or some command to search the indicators being hidden. What special localized string is Unity reading to determine whether an app is allowed in the systray or not?– NicholiNov 3, 2011 at 19:38

If I knew that I would be very happy, as I would like to have 'wicd' in the systray rather than in the indicator applet. But sadly my knowledge in these things is quite limited.– joschiNov 3, 2011 at 23:15
