On this topic, remember that during the release criteria discussion at
FUDCon, desktop team agreed for this to be a criterion:

"All Applications listed in the desktop menus must have icons which have
a consistent appearance and sufficiently high resolution to not appear
blurry"

Consequently, that's in the Final release criteria:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_13_Final_Release_Criteria

which means that if it's not met, the release doesn't go out. So, um, if
this has introduced any cases of missing icons in the system menus, that
will need to be fixed ASAP. On a quick scan through my menus I don't
immediately see any missing icons for apps that would be installed by
default, but I just thought I'd mention it.
