Isn't the important part of this functionality covered by the
bookmarks sidebar, at least if it allows drag and drop?
Personally I'm not very interested in the tray icon thingy.
It's not that much harder to start thunar and click on a
bookmark. Or you could create a submenu of launchers in the
panel to open thunar in the folders you use most often. How
about a panel plugin that provides these launchers based on
thunar bookmarks?
