They prefer gnome-industrial-old.png to gnome-industrial-new.png ? that is
incredible to me - Let me ask my artists to weigh in. Ultimately the gross
insensitisation there that is what we are facing & the root of our problem; we
care not at all for the 'default' icon set, none of our users see that.

I cannot have our desktop look like this:
http://www.openoffice.org/nonav/issues/showattachment.cgi/35095/gnome-industrial-old.png

it has to look like this :-)
http://www.openoffice.org/nonav/issues/showattachment.cgi/35095/gnome-industrial-old.png

As a solution we can add more code that flags an icon set as being 'old' /
non-deep-alpha / few-colors / palletized and uses the old code for that - would
that satisfy you ? or are your expert graphic designers [ presumably the same
people that came up with the existing 'default' icon set ] opposed to that too.

Similarly - from an a11y point of view - inexperienced as I am I have to say
that eg. the bullet indent/de-indent icons at:
http://www.openoffice.org/nonav/issues/showattachment.cgi/35099/gnome-hc-old.png
are almost invisible to someone with good low-contrast vision, and almost
certainly entirely so to someone with poor contrast perception. Compare it with:
http://www.openoffice.org/nonav/issues/showattachment.cgi/35100/gnome-hc-new.png
and perhaps you have the opposite problem: but at least you can see *something*
[ the opposite being mainly a function of the artwork's use of color/alpha etc. 
].

So - again; I want to get my patch up-stream; it should not be controversial to
make it behave in the same way as the rest of the platform; would you have a
problem with making this apply for everything except your 'default' theme.

I think - *perhaps* it is unhelpful that the shots are not all taken with the
toolbar in the same state - eg. the control palette is 'in design mode' in the
HC 'new' shot and not in the old one; sigh.
