Public bug reported:

This is about the tray icon that is shown when the wired network is
connected (screenshot attached) under the Oxygen icon theme (KDE
default).

It's supposed to be a picture of an RJ-45 ethernet connector being
plugged in, which makes sense. However, it looks more like a punk with a
mullet wearing a hat.

The cause of the issue is that as drawn, the cable is drawn being
plugged in *upside-down*, with the grooves (containing the contacts) on
top. Besides being wrong, it leaves space on top in the shape of a hat.

While I have nothing against mullets, the icon should be re-drawn to
avoid user confusion.
