Title:
  sni-qt should be removed as a recommend of ubuntu-desktop until it
  actually works correctly in at least the most common apps

Status in “ubuntu-meta” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Having it installed means that even when a app is added to the systray whitelist it still uses the indicator instead
  In vlc  practically nothing works right, smplayer is better but area's of the indicator don't function

  In both cases the systray icon works perfectly
  It would be better to make sni-qt a recommend of any app where it does work, if any
  The other possibility would be to add a blacklist to sni-qt if that was possible
