Hi all (Andrew in particular)

I really think we have 2 issue in the way we let the user configure the fdo
icon theme for their system.

1. In the E config we have a list of fdo themes and 2 checkbox:
  * Enable for applications
  * Enable for Enlightenment

The first one will set the theme for GTK and ELM, I really think we need to
spit this in 2 different checks, one for ELM and one for non-efl apps.
Without this separation there are useful configuration that are really hard
to make.
For example I use on my system the Mint-X theme for GTK app and the default
for ELM, to make this configuration I need to:
 * Open the E config and choose Mint-X (this also change ELM to use Mint-X)
 * Then open the ELM config and choose "Use elementary icons"
After this every time I want to change the theme for gtk (maybe I want to
try a new theme) I need to go again in the ELM config and change it back.
So we really need a new checkbox "Enable for ELM" that, if checked will set
the fdo theme in the elm config, while if not checked will reset elm to use
the icons included in the theme.


2. The Enlightenment-X fdo theme that we are providing is only meant to be
used with non-efl applications, using it with elm is an incredibly waste of
resource as they are exactly the same icons provided in the elm theme (full
fdo lookup instead of just pick from the edj file).
We really need to automatically set elm to use internal icons when the user
select the Enlightenment-X theme in both the E config dialog and the ELM
one.
As for the implementation of this one: maybe is enough to change the
ELM_CONFIG_ICON_THEME_ELEMENTARY define to "Enlightenment-X" ?


If no one have objections I would ask Andrew to implement/fix this 2 issues

Thanks
