Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution

The evolution toolbar has an icon for delete and an icon for cancel
current email operation. There are several problems with this:

* the icons are similar, both visually indicate almost the same concept
* in fact, they are (in my view) the wrong way around. the cancel icon 
signifies delete to me. and probably the delete is more like cancel
* the cancel operation icon is arguable not important enough to be in the 
toolbar in the first place, but even so there should be clear design separation

The icons should be changed to be more distinct and indicative of
function.
