Tomboy on Xfce crashes when panel autohides

I run tomboy on Xfce, and it works perfectly when the panel is not set to autohide. When the panel is on autohide, the tomboy system tray icon disappears from the panel, although the space where it was stays "reserved" (it's just plain gray) and the tomboy windows become unresponsive. Does anyone else have this problem, or have an idea on how to solve it? I like my panel autohiding ..

Hmm... I'll have to try that to see if I get your result.

I too run Tomboy in Xfce, but my most significant problem with it is that the "Open Plugins Folder" menu selection it offers actually opens-up Konqueror instead of Nautilus or Thunar (Thunar being my preference).  Of course you're wondering why I'd have all 3 major file managers on my system, and, well, with so many apps dependent on Nautilus or Konqueror I finally gave in and just let gnome and kde run rampant behind my pretty Xfce Desktop.

My question is how do I set Thunar as the default so that Tomboy calls it instead of Konqueror (and how did Konqueror beat-out Nautilus for this gnome-application's default-triggered file manager)?
