The same applies resizing problem applies when making panel smaller, instead of 
icons being resized, their edges start to get trimmed out. Indicators should 
support resizing.

Subject: [Ayatana] Undersized indicator icons

Indicator icons are much smaller than their containing panel would currently 
allow.

I've got a high-resolution screen, that's viewed at a considerable distance, so 
everything needs to be quite large (in terms of pixels) to be usable. A similar 
argument probably applies to visually impaired users.

See the attached image. The indicator icons are all tiny. Launchers, and even 
some notification icons (like nm-applet's) scale up *beautifully* to take all 
the space they're offered. The notification area's pretty inconsistent about 
this, but you get the idea.

Should the indicator icons be sized according to the panel they're on? If 
they're really going to be much smaller, should they support multiple rows, so 
they don't waste so much space?

Thoughts?
