Err i got my menu icon to change when changing the icon theme... i
just had to restart the panel for it to take effect.

At most this is a small glitch becuase the gnome-panel doesn't
notice the change. Unless you mean something different, I definitely
saw the menu icon change on panel restart, and it definitely matched
the icon themes i selected in the theme manager.
