   Ah, that one seems like a better location; I wasn't entirely sure where to 
put the script. Though if there's ever a chance of the script becoming part of 
the official build process, then leaving it in this repo would make the git 
history cleaner.
   
   Potential future changes that might be relevant to whether the script might 
eventually become a part of the build process:
   * Perhaps we decide that it's better to copy in the SVGs at build time, to 
avoid having lots of of duplicate SVGs committed in the repo? Or perhaps not; 
there were other ideas floated before that did not involve a build step, such 
as having a centralized icon substitution mechanism in ImageUtilities.
   * Perhaps we revisit the idea of generating PNGs of different resolutions 
(e.g. [email protected], [email protected]) from the SVGs at build time instead of 
relying on the rather heavyweight NetBeans SVG loader. There are some use cases 
where SVGs won't load automatically, such as in image tags in a Swing HTML 
caption of a JLabel, or in image loading code generated by the NetBeans form 
builder.
   
   Happy to open a PR against netbeans-tools instead if you think that's the 
best place for these files. Let me know what you think.
