I mean precisely this:

* The version with icon etc. --

was what was tested. Sticking with the successful version from your A/B test is
generally a good idea. 
* As an interim solution, it totally works for Vector (and probably other skins
too) to keep the same appearance but move the position of the link, as Bartosz
suggested. We probably won't see the same usability gains measured in the test,
but it's a lot better than doing nothing.
