Hi,

Since I'm working on the new rendering component it's a good time to  
decide if we want a special wiki syntax for special icons such as for  
emoticons and more.
For example Confluence has these:
http://snipplr.com/view/4931/confluence-emoticons/

I can think of 2 solutions for us:

1) we do the same, i.e. introduce new syntax for these
2) we rely on a macro instead (for ex: {icon:name/})

1) looks more natural for end users while 2) is more extensible (and  
would allow us to include the whole Tango library for ex: 
http://tango.freedesktop.org/images/2/20/Tango-feet.png) 
. 1) is also way more complex to implement than 2).

For 2) we would need to find some way so that it's easy for the user  
to enter (of course the WYSIWYG editor could have a nice selector for  
that macro but it would also be nice if it were not too hard to enter  
in wiki mode).

WDYT?

Thanks
-Vincent
