Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

It would be nice if all icons in the notification area would be all colored monochrome. You can see a similar effect in how icons on the Mac OS X panel are all black: they look great and bring contrast to the notification area. Monochrome icons are also much less distracting, color could be used is your attention is really necessary (like when the battery is almost empty).

Here are some extra arguments by Matthew Thomas for doing this:
