It makes enough sense imho. An icon with a mix of points, lines and
polygons might represent better the undeterminate-dness of the geometry
type, but at the same time it could become quite dense graphically
wise (to the point of being confusing).

Another minor detail is about the raster icons, on my screen the 
contrast between the pixels is low and at a first glance the icon
might seem just a square with some pattern fill inside (i.e., it's
not readily apparent that it's actually a grid).

Cheers
