Summary: KSysTrayCmd startes with wrong application if a launcher is set to "Place to System Tray" (because it does not have the --window regexp flag)

Description koso 2009-10-18 14:38:05 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

How to reproduce:
1. Set some application launcher icon (in my case thunderbird) to "Place to system tray".
2. Start this application
3. During starting up of application, open Krunner window using Alt+F2 (This must be done before tray icon is created, so application with longer startup time must be used)

Result:
- In system tray is placed Krunner and no thunderbird, also Krunner is quit broken when restored using tray (no graphics is drawn)

Expected results:
- Thunderbird is placed in tray and Krunner window is visible

This is caused by a misbehavior on KSysTrayCmd. It wont take the windows of the PID of the application it started; so you need to specify the "-window regexp" command at the end, so it will catch that windows. This little app should get a maintainer and be rewritten...
