Bug Description
The change in the "zenity --notification" behavior completely removed the functionality to display an unobtrusive, always visible tray icon from zenity.
For clarity, the tray icon functionality should be made available with a proper "zenity --trayicon" feature.
For backwards compatibility, the --notification option would have to continue to show an icon. It may do so only together with the the --listen option (this then implies status updates should follow), and emit only a simple notification bubble and exit otherwise.

Ubuntu 11.10
zenity 3.2.0-0ubuntu1
In a script I use following line:
exec 3> >(zenity --notification --window-
so I can change the tray icon based on what the script does.
What I expect to happen:
"zenity --notification" should show an icon in the tray or appindicator.
What happens instead:
A "zenity --warning" style dialog window pops up.
