Comment 20 for bug 430277

So I chatted about this bug with Ivanka who told me that:
- we would keep the mix of greyscale and non-greyscale icons this cycle and the next one
- apps using notification area icons are welcome to integrate with the Ubuntu theme by providing greyscale icons, or can keep coloured icons, or even make it configurable like dropbox on OSX

She might consider updating our current icons with slightly updated ones, for instance slightly different level of grey, and told me she would check out what's in lp:humanity's bzr.
