Title:
  System Menu disappears when using HighContrast themes

Status in indicator-session package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  1. Open System Settings>Appearance
  2. Change the theme to High Contrast.
  3. Notice that the far right indicator, the system status menu, no longer has an icon. This makes it impossible for a typical user to log out of their account.

  As a workaround, it's possible to click another menu, like the clock,
  and use the right arrow key to navigate to the basically invisible
  system menu.

  This should be a high priority bug, as it makes the system less usable
  to those who have enabled an accessibility feature.

  This will also affect the planned GNOME remix of Ubuntu as we use
  Adwaita by default but it will also include the Classic session with
  indicators. If 3D support doesn't work (such as in my VirtualBox
  testing today), the user will get the Classic session.

  
  Original bug description
  ========================
