The second problem is the icon images. The icon should be screen
independent, but sometimes is not possible.
My personal feeling is that they *have* to be screen dependant. Icons
are meant to be displayed on a screen, so they need to be. Keeping a
screen independent version looks like a memory overuse for me (and
images are already the biggest memory consuming things)
I had the same feeling about this.

Without these ideas, is very difficult (IMO impossible) implement
XRandR, Multiheader, ... configurations.
I think the problem is not taken for the right angle. It is not the
image loading and icon creation that should be split, it is the WScreen
information:
The legacy X screen info (basically: depth, the infos to convert the
image into X specific format) should be separated from physical screen
info (as returned by Xinerama and Xrandr, info like size of the screen
and the likes).
I agree as I wrote previously. Wasn't the split of some info into the
global structure a step into this direction? I think there's some
ambiguity in the terms or functions of some objects that needs to be
sorted but I don't know where or what exactly.
