When you save a local copy of a web page with NetSurf you get an icon file which is a tiny thumbnail view of the entire web page. I don't like these very much - I find them untidy. Given that you can control whether or not iconised windows use thumbnail images, it's a bit odd that one has no control at all over the 'saved page icons'. I'd prefer a generic 'saved web page' app icon, or nothing at all, giving the RISC OS default icon. If a web page provided an .ico file, I guess many people might prefer to use that.
Is it possible to turn off the 'IconSprites' line in the mini !Run files NetSurf provides you, which currently reads "IconSprites <Obey$Dir>.!Sprites Filer_Run <Obey$Dir>.index" Providing better control over this does seem like a legit use for a configuration option. I'm a bit surprised that !Run file (and/or an option Boot file) aren't available as editable resources. At present I'm deleting the unwanted Sprites files and tweaking the !Run files by hand, which is a chore.
