Thanks Matthew.

The icons are still shipped in g-c-c, we can't ship them in u-c-c as
well because it would make both conflict (and we want GNOME and Unity to
be installable on the same machine). We can't really rename either
because it would lead to have the icons duplicated in the UI if you have
both installed.

I'm going to go with option 1, make g-c-c build a g-c-c-faces and make
u-c-c recommends it

Title:
  No user icons provided / user icons not used

Status in Ayatana Design:
  Fix Released
Status in “unity-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  GNOME Control Centre provided a default set of user icons so users
  could pick an icon for themself. Since we've migrated to Unity Control
  Centre we no longer have any default icons.

  The options seem to be:
  1. Split the icons out of gnome-control-center and ship them with both GNOME 
Control Centre and Unity Control Centre.
  2. Provide a set of Ubuntu themed icons, e.g. the Ubuntu pictograms [1].
  3. Remove support from Unity Control Centre for user icons since they're not 
actually used anywhere.

  What does design think about option 3? I note the design [2] shows
  icons but it doesn't indicate if they're used anywhere. If not option
  3, can we get a good set of pictograms to use?
