I'm sure that a solution which addresses your issues without compromising on the design goals will be adopted in a heartbeat - feel free to get in contact with the gnome designers to provide constructive feedback (and no, you don't have to be "creative" to do that - that's their job after all ;-) Of course the implementation detail of which DBus protocol applications use to interact with the tray (Notify or NotifierIcon) is completely irrelevant for those UI problems - if it sucks for you now, implementing status notifiers in the message tray would suck just as badly.
