THIS IS THE TOP
NO! It makes current list of icons show. Anything new will still start hidden and you have to run the script again to unhide them, at which point it's easier to just drag them manually!
We need an option to make notification icons initialize with IsPromoted=1 instead of starting with IsPromoted=0 and having to run a script or drag them manually to change that default.
