Try gnome-panel instead of xfce4-panel (modify the /etc/xfce4/xinitrc) .. if you miss all those kool gnome applets .. here you go.
my xinitrc looks like ..
Code:

...
xftaskbar4&
xfdesktop&
#panel=`which xfce4-panel`
panel=`which gnome-panel`
if test "x$panel" != "x" && test "x$panel" != "xno"; then
   $panel
...


the only complain I have is, alt + tab treats gnome-panel as a separate window and focuses on it.. does anyone knows how to avoid this ?

I found it useful to remove the line "xftaskbar4 &"; it was getting in the way of gnome-panel.
