I just upgraded to 8.04 LTS (Hardy) Beta and think this is an issue
again. I am not presenting this from a personal taste "I like/don't like
orange perspective", but from a functional perspective I believe we have
lost a lot of usability. For example, compare the following set of
icons, all of which often appear in the top panel:

Firefox
the generic folder
update notifier
crash report icon
tracker

All have orange as the primary colour. Some are meant to convey a
warning or notification status (update notifier, crash report), while
others are simply functional (Firefox, Tracker, Folder).   I question
that interpretation of a tangerine theme to mean that all icons should
incorporate that colour. It seems things have swung so far in the
orange/tangerine direction that much of the information conveyed by an
individual icon has disappeared.

Cheers,
Jane
