We're still an user survey going on [1], and I personally feel the same
and I agree we can't drop the AppIndicator support alltogether, as
that's what most of our currently users expect to have.

But... AppIndicator would also need a refresh, and there has been some
discussion around it, that we should probably reconsider in order to
plans actions for future of it, as also KDE is still stick to that.
