[Ayatana] Undersized indicator icons



Indicator icons are much smaller than their containing panel would currently allow.

I've got a high-resolution screen, that's viewed at a considerable distance, so everything needs to be quite large (in terms of pixels) to be usable. A similar argument probably applies to visually impaired users.

See the attached image. The indicator icons are all tiny. Launchers, and even some notification icons (like nm-applet's) scale up *beautifully* to take all the space they're offered. The notification area's pretty inconsistent about this, but you get the idea.

Should the indicator icons be sized according to the panel they're on? If they're really going to be much smaller, should they support multiple rows, so they don't waste so much space?

Thoughts?
