It's even possible that upstream doesn't like it, if you ship with a
different icon. However, most important is, that users expect the same
icon, what ever Linux distro, BSD or even proprietary OS they run,
especially for professional usage it's important to stay with sane
defaults.
Very good point. It also cuts the work-load into a decent portion. If we
make the generic icons for the system (arrow-back/forward, folder, disc,
HD, SD, settings, etc...) integrate well with upstream we have the
winning solution. But it sort of annihilates the idea of bi-chromatic
icons.
If we want to push it depper, we could still find a nifty grid with
proportional rule-set and container-type that would allow us to use the
icons as they are shipped by upstream while integrating it to our look.
This project obviously needs more research and discussion. :)
