Baptiste, I will let Dan verify this but I am pretty sure that NM will
inherit the icon theme and those are only if the icon theme does not
specify replacements for the Stock Icons.   I tested this on my Ubuntu
7.10 system running NM 0.7 and this was how it behaved.

I personally like the Tango icons but if I am correct and NM will use
a themes icon if they are available then wouldn't the proper place for
these icons be in the Tango Icon theme?

Thanks!
