+Description: styling and icon fixes
+ This patch fixes two issues:
+ 1. some appindicators do not correctly size the size of the icon
+    to the appindicator spec - this patch overrides the given
+    icon size
+ 2. With non inbuilt themes, the applet is not styled in the panel
+    background colour
