Personally, I find 16x16 icons worthless, because I can't see them. But
16x16 icons should be provided along with the 32x32 icons. There should be
some easy way to switch between them. I just didn't put that in my proposal,
becuase the menu program lacks an easy way to change between sizes of icons
right now, and we'll have to wait until Joost gets back from vacation to get
it changed.

User menus are still (IMHO) broken, becuase the user has to run update-menus
all the time to update them (whenever a package is added to the system, the
user must update their menus). Joost and I have discussed this, but it isn't
fixed yet. Also, I think user menus haven't got much testing yet, you you
might have just hit a bug.
