There is also another issue with icon themes which I came across when I
looked at bluecurve (which updates .desktop files icon reference)

The average? user would think that when they change icon theme (whether
in gconf or the "capplet") this should be reflected in the menus.

however because each .desktop file references a icon file this does not
happen
