Title:
  indicator-appmenu holds a circular reference on itself, causes leaks

Status in The Application Menu:
  Fix Committed
Status in “indicator-appmenu” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  An IndicatorAppmenu object adds an extra g_object_ref to itself in its
  initializer and it only removes it in its finalizer, which means such
  objects will never get disposed (their refcount will never drop below
  1).  This causes a largish memory leak when unity-panel-service is
  shut down.
