Comment 15 for bug 558841

I've got what I believe is a somewhat minimal example reproducing this
without the extraneous bluetooth:

https://code.launchpad.net/~nafai/+junk/minimal-menu-example

I have debug prints showing the menu structure and the ui manager xml
output before and after I add a new menu item to the placeholder
menu. For some reason I can't get the submenu items to add, but I
think the is possibly orthogonal to the original problem.

Hopefully this will be a start to being figuring out what is going on
with the app indicator.
