wx.TaskbarIcon works on wxGTK-based platforms now, however you have to
manage it a little bit more than you did before. Basically, the app
will treat it like a top-level frame in that if the wx.TaskBarIcon
still exists when all the frames are closed then the app will still
not exit. You need to ensure that the wx.TaskBarIcon is destroyed
when your last Frame is closed. For wxPython apps it is usually
enough if your main frame object holds the only reference to the
wx.TaskBarIcon, then when the frame is closed Python reference
counting takes care of the rest.
If you are embedding wxPython in a C++ app, or are writing wxPython
compatible extensions modules, then the usage of wxPyBeginAllowThreads
and wxPyEndAllowThreads has changed slightly. wxPyBeginAllowThreads
now returns a boolean value that must be passed to the coresponding
wxPyEndAllowThreads function call. This is to help do the RightThing
when calls to these two functions are nested, or if calls to external
code that are wrapped in the standard Py_(BEGIN|END)_ALLOW_THERADS may
result in wx event handlers being called (such as os.startfile.)
