Sorry for the confusion.

The problem is that this requires your application to be running, which is no good. The point about dock extras was that they required no other extra processes to be running and were therefore just instantaneous and always-on, if you get what I mean (they all ran inside one process, DocklingServer, and now SystemUIServer I guess).

Have a look at lots of the third party dock extras and tell me that they would be better off as applications, not small loadable code bundles.
