Gees, some please fix this already! Ubuntu 16.04.2 also uses some ugly icon. Why not ditch the bitmaps and use this official svg?

It is loaded such that white pixels will be transparent. This can cause nasty artifacts in the display. Unless there is a specific reason to use bitmaps, I'd suggest moving to, e.g., a PNG file with a proper alpha channel.
