Ugly, sunken highlight. Too much space wasted on the left. This is Clearlooks: http://primates.ximian.com/~rodrigo/shots/nm-icon.png Before and after the patch. Weird gradient under the menu without the patch. Too much wasted space on the left: http://aaronbock.net/blog/images/nm-tray-fix.png Too much wasted space on the left. And when you select the menu, it selects the last thing to be in focus, too (see the resapplet icon, next to it).

Sorry if I was unclear before. Yah, I get it. But the current thing is just weird looking and looks even worse in certain themes. Not to mention that the whole embedding of a top menu item in an EggTrayIcon is gross. The lack of highlighting of the progress bar is known but not intentional. I am unsure how to highlight it.
