Bug Description
Binary package hint: human-theme
Disclaimer: I wasn't able to found any commit on human-theme module referring to this.
In Lucid the disclosure widget changed from triangle to button with + o -, depending on current status.
I remember a long discussion in GTK+/GNOME regarding this, and the triangles was chosen due to their ability to suggest the users how they are used and to represent the current state. At the contrary, the + & - could carry the ideas of "add" and "remove", leading to misbehaving.
Then, could we please restore triangles?

I agree , that this is misleading. Unfortunately, murrine does not have an option to change the +/- .
For the expander , we have to use the clearlooks engine or get a good image and use pixmap
