Comment 10 for bug 428676

I've added a collage of screenshots of the applet. The first row shows the old version, the other rows show the current version with different applications highlighted. My panel size is 24 px.

The terminal icon looks great, the others are ugly. Only the Firefox one is almost acceptable.

If you don't want to make the decision to add an option, maybe you could add a secret little gconf key nobody will notice :-)
