There's a complication, though: that icon also needs to show the current volume level. Right now, this is accomplished by switching between icons that look like a speaker, each with a different number and size of sound saves emanating from them. If we allowed custom icons, suddenly there's no guarantee that the icon the user chooses will have multiple versions that show different volume levels — in fact it's almost certain that the icon won't. Which means you'd lose the volume level indication. Unless we handled this by having the widget itself notice when a custom icon is in use, and add its own volume indicator that it overlays on top of the icon (or more likely, off to the side). That would be tricky, but I think it's possible. Marking as CONFIRMED since I think this is reasonable to do would be a nice enhancement. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
