It's true. Thank you for the honestly words. The majority should be made
simpler, but with a obvious message. At moment I am unlucky with the
most of them...

It's a good notice. The only what we want is a consistence (monochrome
icons) in the panel. Apps and system-menus should be stay as they are.
The replacing or inheriting those new monochrome icons is a good stuff
for the panel-look, but it's destroying (replacing) the original setting
in the hicolor-theme. Will say... it's better let these solution from
gnome-look at moment and wait for Lucid.

I am unsure ... maybe, maybe not! But we are talking only about the
panel-icons! ... sure?
