    Description

      The QML SystemTrayIcon.showMessage does nothing on Big Sur. I'm not sure if it's to do with Big Sur or just macOS in general. The supportsMessages property reports 'true'.

      Otherwise the tray icon works find, i.e. displays in the menu bar and the menu works as expected - it's just the notifications/messages.

      The example System Tray application also exhibits this problem (it seems to freeze up/crash).

      I've tried debug and release builds.
