Restore Unity Desktop Indicator

Sometimes Unitiy in Ubuntu 16.04 fails loading theme and icons in a random way, showing ubuntu default theme and icons (Radiance and Humanity resp.)

This indicator load at start-up and can help restore desktop to user theme and icons setted in a easy way. This indicator don't try solve the problem, it's just aworkarround. At least is much faster restart desktop than reboot entire system.

Of course if old school rules works for you, then you cant type on a terminal

setsid unity && killall nautilus

and the efect will be the same
