The important part to me is to stop portraying Base as a database, because it is not - from working with hundreds or more of users with Base those that thought of it as a database had very bad experiences (meaning the Schema management and such) those that approached it as what it was designed for, a form/report management tool had much better experience. It would be nice for the icon to emphasis the form/report functions and IMO get away from the idea it is a RDBMS. I have a very crude idea for a base icon - I'll put it to an image and pass it along - it would only be to try and pass along my general ideas.
