i have noticed two strange bugs in regard to the new indicator plugin on the panel in xubuntu 14.04 (64bit):

1. in the panel preferences dialog, when i set the background style to "none (use system style)" the entire indicator plugin area and all the icons in it, refuse to match the rest of the panel and instead take on a semi-transparent grey background. this happens with all themes that i've tried. here is a screenshot that shows how out of place and incosistent the indicator area looks under these conditions; http://i5.minus.com/i13axvucGfWum.png now, if i change the background style to "solid color" the bug disappears; http://i6.minus.com/ibjum6Wc3c9Anz.png but that means my panel will no longer match whatever theme i use automatically.

2. some icons in the indicator plugin area have portions cut off, there is no other way to describe this. here is a screenshot; http://i5.minus.com/i51zpfDWSL0nE.png notice the icon for psensor (next to volume control icon) is cut off at the top and bottom.

p.s. this is on a machine i upgraded from 13.10 to 14.04 through the software updater / dist-upgrade. aside from some issues with a few indicator and notification plugins, the upgrade went swimmingly.

- version of xfce4-indicator-plugin = 2.3.2-0ubuntu2
- what i expect to happen = the indicator plugin area should match the xfce theme i'm using, and thus the rest of the panel. icons should also not be cut off, and i'd assume scaled to fit on the panel instead.
- what happened instead = the indicator plugin area does not match any xfce them i'm using, and thus looks very out of place on the panel, unless i change the background style to "solid color", but this nullifies the ability of the panel to automatically match themes. certain icons also do not fit the panel and are cut off / cropped.
