In quick evaluation, I think we may need C wrapper for ibus to fix this.

To modify GtkStatusIcon image on gnome-panel systray, we need to access
GtkImage in GtkStatusIcon. But GtkImage is a private member in GtkStatusIcon so
python doesn't provide the interface of GtkImage in gtk.StatusIcon.

If we try to provide a custom gtk.Image likes ibus/ui/gtk/icon.py, we need to
access _gtk_tray_icon_new() but the GtkTrayIcon itself is private in gtk so
python also doesn't provide the API.

If we try to provide a custom _gtk_tray_icon_new(), we need to access X11 Atom
but there is no x11 python.

I think dbus C API is not a solution in this case since _gtk_tray_icon_new()
would be need the display.

How about providing a new C wrapper likes /usr/lib/python/ibus/ibusgtk.so ?
