If a really large number of icons use monochrome themes, distinguishing

this is a plus, as it can distinguish them from all the other icons in the menu.
For every icon in all the menus might be another matter, however. When some is
good, more is not always better.

Here are two screenshots with the new icons used with a flat monochrome icon theme called "Any Colour You Like", which I've used before and really liked on a dark GTK theme called "Buonanotte", and also on a light theme called "Clearlooks" for reference.

(NOTE: The menu panel icon is broken, I couldn't figure out how to fix it)

Looks nice to me, since everything has that monochrome look (most of the common apps are covered as well). I don't have confusion regarding the UBS specific menus because of the separators, but then other DEs might display it differently. Opinions?
