When running under GTK+ 2, GTK+ stock item IDs (e.g. @c "gtk-cdrom") may be used

choose the best looking bitmap. For example it is often desirable to use
slightly different icons in menus and toolbars even though they represent
the same action (e.g. wxART_FILE_OPEN). Remember that this is really only a
identical bitmap for different client values!
