I put all my application icons into the quicklauncher applet where the icon size is easy to change.  I set the panel size to large, and the icon size to 24 so I get two rows of application icons - saves a lot of space.

Setting the panel size to large automatically stacks the system tray 
icons.  Since I also set the panel to autohide, the extra height doesn't 
bother me.
