Oversize icons in PopupImageMenuItem

Hi all, I've been using this code to create a menu full of PopupImageMenuItems unchanged pretty much since I added an indicator to shellshape, and in recent versions of gnome-shell (3.16, maybe even 3.14) the icons got really big: https://github.com/timbertson/shellshape/issues/164 The code behi

Hi all, The fact that all extensions have their disable() method called when screen lock starts (and enable() called when the screen is unlocked) is new to me, although it's presumably been around a while. For my shellshape extension (https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/294/shellshape/), this
