Bug Description

Adding indicator-applet-appmenu on gnome-panel in gnome-sessaion-flashback under saucy results in crashing all other applets (including indicator-applet) present on that panel. And the panel becomes unusable.

All other applets works fine without indicator-applet-appmenu.

`gnome-panel --replace` in terminal gives following error:

"
(gnome-panel:8145): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_accelerator_parse_with_keycode: assertion 'accelerator != NULL' failed

** (gnome-panel:8145): WARNING **: Unable to parse mouse modifier '(null)'

Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/50-user.conf", line 14: reading configurations from ~/.fonts.conf is deprecated.

(gnome-panel:8145): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_accelerator_parse_with_keycode: assertion 'accelerator != NULL' failed

** (gnome-panel:8145): WARNING **: Unable to parse mouse modifier '(null)'

"

Removing indicator-applet-appmenu, after crash, restores panel behavior to normal.

On previous versions I had the same issue when adding a second appmenu applet (one for each monitor, expecting they could use the menues of the apps on that monitor). On latest one, using configurations from older versions (.e. system is upgraded from an older version) the menu is still shown, but it fails when adding the applet on a new configuration.
