How to file a helpful issue
The problem you're addressing (if any)
It seems that qubes-app-shutdown-idle has two considerations as to when shutdown a qube:
The fact that qubes-app-shutdown-idle does not shut down a qube when a tray icon is active means that if I have a sys-vpn qube that creates a nm_applet tray icon, it will never shut down, even if no qubes are using it anymore for network access.
The solution you'd like
Another checkbox in qube-manager or way to configure qubes-app-shutdown-idle so that if ignores tray icons when deciding which vms to shut down automatically.
The value to a user, and who that user might be
That user: me, and certainly many others. I'd like my additional sys-vpn qubes to shut down when they are not being used, but the network manager tray icon is seemingly preventing that.
