At one point I tried to use the "draw button" code from the metacity
theme engine to draw the menu icons, but it looked like ass for most
themes.

So I think you have it right, it may make sense if the metacity theme
can somehow provide the menu icons, but I don't think we can do it
automatically exactly. Maybe the right approach is the inverse, the
metacity theme can render icons from the icon theme into the titlebar if
it wants to.
