Generally the spec looks well worked out. Three things:
* How about allowing base64 encoded images to be inlined in the .emblem?
This is bad for theming purposes but might also be easier in many cases.
Makes sense I guess. Another compromise is restricting IconName to
only allow icon files to be in the same directory as the .emblem file.
In hindsight this might be better from a security perspective.
* If you allow user definable tags with associated .emblems you should
probably enforce that DisplayName==Keyword
Doesnt this introduce a whole slew of problems from the application
developers perspective? For example, a program written in X, which
ships a bunch of .emblems expects to be able to associate files with
that emblem using a locale independent Keyword, presumably coded
somewhere in the program.
They then expect a user of Nautilus, running in locale Y to be shown
the translated .emblem name.
* How about putting this on the fdo wiki? That way you can also collect
comments on the wiki page.
