[X2Go-Dev] x2goclient feature request: Informational "Bubble" in Tray

Hi Alex,

I would like to suggest a feature.

Current situation:
When x2goclient is set to minimize to the tray, and an automatic logon 
(--hide and a Public SSH key/active Agent) is performed, x2goclient goes 
straight to the tray.  Combine that with a Published Application 
session, and you have no way of telling when the applications are available.

The only way to tell the different stages of the login apart is by 
repeated right-clicking on the icon and looking at the available menu 
items (all greyed out, all but topmost item greyed out, all available).

Would it be possible to add a bubble to the tray icon that displays 
"Connecting to X2Go server..." (or maybe even mention the session name), 
and a "Connection established!" once the connection has been established 
and the list of published applications has been downloaded to the client?

-Stefan
