I think adding support for vector icons is great, but removing the gtk stock
icon feature, that's ridiculous, why don't they just update GTK to support any
image format, rastor and vector both, as stock icons? Then it would be up to
the theme to choose format.But I do strongly believe vector is better for the
future because it's resolution independent, if GUIs relied 100% on variable
formats/sizing like vector images and grid unit sizing, then it would be much
easier to work with different form factors.Don't get me wrong, I know the
performance fallbacks there would be with older machines, but it would be
perfect for new technology.
