Comment 15 for bug 106186

I don't want to be boring, but I don't understand why this bug was declined for feisty.
I undestand there are more important bugs that had to be fixed before, but I also think that the usability of a Desktop is important as well.
Matthias, you wrote "The icon selection stuff should be changed to only select the installed icon sets."
I completely agree with you.
As you see in my attachment above the result of this bug is a bad inconsistency in the Desktop appeareance itself.
I am used to PC working, so I would be able to understand the problem and find a workaround by installing the packet openoffice.org-style-tango.
I can assure you that this could be a very big problem for a newbie.
He opens openoffice, sees odd menus without icons, wondering what happened to them, forgiving that two day before he changed icon theme on Gnome Desktop.
He finally don't understand what happened and probably start thinking that Ubuntu is a bit inconsistent and not too ready for the Desktop.
Naturally this is an hypothetical situation, but as my experience teel me about Desktop newbie users, it's not far from reality.
