enhancement: only one icon on the panel

Hello,
i don't need to see the icons in the systray all the time and depend your apps number placed in the systray, it could take a lot of space on the panel.
It could be great to add this feature: TopIcons-plus extension show only one icon on the panel, when you click on this icon you can see all the systray icons. It's a feature request similar to the MS WIndows systray icons (you can partially hide them on WIndows).

LGDN.

That would be useful, cause on my top bar there is no space for bunch of icons :(

I support this idea too.

I could be easier to implement to have a TopIcons-plus's icon in the panel which would drop down to show all the icons on a top-down list. It would be also easily accessible ("unfoldable") with Meta-M and a few arrow clicks.

Having a bunch of icons inline in the panel is problematic with some other extensions (taking top panel space) and a limited resolution when working on a laptop.

Update. #84 seems to cover that idea.

Top down list is nice!
