Summary:                    launcher/menu icons won't allow transparent background
Description: 
If the panel has a background image, this image will not be repeated in the
background of launcher icons, even if said icons are PNG's with
transparent backgorunds. The panel background image *will* fill up the
backgrounds of icons within launcher menus however - if these icons are
PNG's with transparent backgrounds

I have no idea how to solve this and no time to look into it unfortunately.
It may have something to do with the xfce widget not being covered by the
theme. If anyone would like to look at this, that would be highly
appreciated.

this may be somewhat related to how the xfdesktop menu (using a custom
widget) doesn't always follow the theme.  i _think_ that can be fixed by
calling
gtk_widget_set_name(item, "GtkMenuItem") - so maybe setting the name to
"GtkButton" here will do the trick.  i'll look into it.
