When updating trunk over the weekend I was surprised by two commits
replacing/overwriting old icons with new tango ones. Before I had a

already replace all the stock gtk icons to match their style.

It could be a concern on win32 or in embedded scenarios. Although most
embedded GTK+ uses probably have custom builds of GTK+, so they can
easily replace the stock icons with something that works better on their

I think it is clear that if you use gtk-foo icon for bar then
you're misusing it. But let's not forget about the reasons for
doing it: there may simply be no other alternative other than no
icon at all.

This wouldn't work too well. MS Windows just doesn't have much of an
icon style to begin with. Microsoft seem to rework their icons for
each new Windows release, causing a lot of visual disparity among all
the applications targeted towards the platform. In short, creating
special MS-Windows

Also, if you are using icons in ways other than they were designed
for, you can always create a copy under another name so that changes
in the user's theme (or an update of the default) won't mess up the
visual look of your application. That's how I'm handling custom icons
for my project, and it
