The Hildon HIG 
http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/beta/hig/html/ch06s09.html
says
"
Only use toggle buttons as filters in a menu. Use them in groups, so
they are not mistaken for regular buttons. Make the group behave like
either a group of check buttons or a group of GTK radio buttons, as
required.
"

I wonder how we should "use them in a group". Maybe putting them in a
"filter" has that effect.
