Thanks for this interesting quotation. But I can't see how this may
affect my case. Here's my scheme:
- two icon sources: one SVG and one PNG-22x22
- a GtkStatusIcon that normally is set to 22x22

Why the hell would GTK+ draw the icon from SVG in 20x20, and then
consider this as better than 22x22?! Moreover, when the SVG is removed
and I set size_wilcarded to FALSE for the PNG, the GtkStatusIcon has no
icon at all, so this is not about scaling anything.

Cheers
