In any case, it certainly is the 3.5-branch. And this theme was there when I upgraded from 3.4.x to 3.5.0 for the first time. Doesn't it mean that this theme is: a) working with LO 3.5; b) is included as a default theme? Thank you.

Different colour(s)? > I guess, such suggestion has appeared earlier in this list. My point of view is that there is simply no _need_ to change something that works well. But of course, people a free to change everything they want in the free software world -- and I believe we all respect this freedom. And of course, LibreOffice will work as well with any other icon set, and the users will not stop using it just because of the icons change. :) I was just expressing my opinion. Like voting or something like that.

By the way, if there is a way for the user to choose the icon set, what are the reasons to change the default style? I mean, not from aesthetic point of view, but from a practical one.

Re: [tdf-discuss] Can we replace "Floppy Disk"
I like the floppy icon. "HDD" icon is being broadly used nowadays, but as somebody pointed in this thread, not every user is familiar with computer inside, so changing from one thing that they haven't seen to another one which they also haven't seen doesn't make much sense. "Optical drive" icon is a bad variant because people usually do not save the documents directly to the optical drive; instead they usually tend to associate the "CD" icon with CD/DVD burning process. "USB" icon is also not a better solution, because not every user knows what this sign means (although they probably can see it on many different devices). In any case, the traditional "Foppy" icon just works. Why changing something that works? The policy of making changes for their own sake does not seem a good one to me. Just my thoughts.

For example, I use QtiPlot for this purpose and sometimes Sage (via Matplotlib) when I work with it. Still, any LO user may ask for a desired functionality.
