There are no provisions in the icon theme specs for providing symbolic
application icons. If we shipped one that we installed to the hicolor
theme, we could only ship either the light or the dark icon, but not
both. There are no standard hicolor-symbols-light and hicolor-symbols-
dark themes for providing these icons. And it is not appropriate for
applications to install icons into arbitrary nonstandard themes.
Therefore the monochrome icons for the app icon should be in the ubuntu-
mono-{light,dark} themes, rather than shipped here.

And the system indicators do not automatically look for the -symbolic
icons and fall back if not found, so there is no way for Ubuntu One to
specify that the monochrome icon should be used there, but not in other
places. This is a bug in the indicator, which I believe Naty filed, and
Ted said he would fix soon in 11.04 for beta2.
