This affects me also - I couldn't find a more specific report than this one though.
The issue is graphical glitches affecting the drawing of and interaction with the affected icons. Sometimes the issue affects notification area icons (inc. network manager's icon) to the left of indicator-applet. It can also affect the shutdown icon (which applet handles this?) on the far right. I attach a screenshot of the panel as it currently looks (but the issues can vary in specifics). I note that this one of mine looks very similar to a screenshot attached to a forum post by someone else at the start of last month (the last part of the username is repeated instead of drawing the power button icon).
