Description
Look at this screenshot.

While "Radio Menu" and "Toggle Menu" in toolbar look terrific, subitems in both these menus are rendered... as before 2.1.09, to be polite.

I not found simple workaround to change font rendering type for items.
But even if such workaround exists - I am totally sure that menu items must have LCD rendering by default.
While simple text is rendered without LCD and that can be explained by performance reasons, menu rendering is very important for general GUI acceptance and do not require waste amount of work, doesn't it?

Graphics issue that is being tracked by RT-18901.

This issue should automatically resolve itself once RT-18901 it resolved, but that is out of our hands.

@Paru: Can this be looked at for 2.1?

This might be a simple CSS fix that needs to be applied, and is well worth getting in to 2.1.
