 I think it does, at least the code is definitely there.

 There seems to be an error in configure, it seems to test completely wrong
value in the test when it decides whether or not to create the makefile for
this sample. I have no idea about what's going on here (but I'll fix it :-)

 I think it appear in the Dock, although there were some discussions about
putting it in the menu bar (I'd prefer this too).

 If you really want to minimize the library size you should also consider
disabling the features you don't need as this can achieve quite substantial
reductions (by default everything is enabled).
