I agree - I have experienced the system tray icons loading in the top left
of the screen.  Sometimes beryl doesn't even load automatically even though
it appears in the system tray.  When I first installed it, Beryl would crash
when I logged out, but I chose to ignore any further crashes from beryl so
it doesn't bother me anymore.

I think that I will follow suit on this instead of trying to get beryl to
start automagically.
